Time 47m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 9-inch graham cracker crust
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 (250 g) package cream cheese, softened
3 cups milk
1 (6 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding
1 (10 ounce) can mandarin orange segments, drained
2 medium bananas, sliced
1 envelope prepared dream whip dessert topping
2 cups coconut, toasted (I find 1 cup enough)

Steps:

  • Prepare graham crumb crust recipe, adding nuts to mixture.
  • Press firmly into 13 x 9" pan.
  • Chill.
  • Beat cream cheese until soft.
  • Gradually add 1/2 c of the milk, beat until smooth.
  • In seperate bowl, prepare pudding mix as directed on pkg using the remaining 2 1/2 cups milk.
  • Add prepared pudding to cream cheese mixture in three additions, beating on low speed.
  • Fold in oranges.
  • Layer bananas on crust.
  • Spoon pudding mixture over bananas, spread prepared dessert topping evenly over pudding mixture.
  • Sprinkle with toasted coconut.
  • Chill 4 hours.
  • Cut into squares.
  • (for toasted coconut, I usually just put under broiler for a minute or 2 and stir a couple of times, others may choose to'bake' it first).

I had some trouble getting the crust to set, but the squares still tasted great.

I'm not a big fan of coconut, but I loved these ambrosia squares. The pineapple flavor really shines through.

This recipe is a keeper! The squares were moist and flavorful, and the coconut-pecan topping was the perfect finishing touch.
