Ingredients:
For the Crust:
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup butter
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 eggs
For the Filling:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 cups milk, divided
- 3 (3.4 oz) packages Instant French Vanilla Pudding
Topping:
- 8 oz whipped topping (like Cool Whip), defrosted
- Chocolate syrup, as needed
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly coat a 13×9-inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
For the Cream Puff Pastry Crust:
Add butter and water to a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until butter melts, then bring to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in flour with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a soft ball.
Transfer dough to a large mixing bowl and let rest for 5 minutes.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly with an electric mixer after each addition. Continue mixing until smooth.
Spread the sticky dough evenly in the prepared baking dish. (Tip: Spray the back of a spatula with cooking spray to spread it easily.)
Bake for 20–23 minutes, or until puffed and golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
For the Cream Puff Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese with 1 cup of milk until smooth.
Add remaining milk and pudding mix, then beat for several minutes on high speed until thickened.
Spread pudding mixture over the cooled crust.
Top with whipped topping and smooth it out with a spatula.
Chill for at least 1 hour (or overnight).
Drizzle with chocolate syrup before serving.
