LAYERED PISTACHIO DESSERT (USES JELL-O PUDDING MIX)
This recipe reminds me of those big, fun family dinners we used to have when I was a kid. This is one of my favorite recipes of my grandmother's. The layers consist of a nutty baked bottom crust, creamy cheesecake-like center and top layer of pistachio pudding. If desired, you could also use any other flavor of pudding mix. Yummy!

Tips:
- Choose the right Jell-O and pudding flavors. There are endless possibilities when it comes to flavor combinations, so have fun and experiment! Some classic favorites include cherry Jell-O with vanilla pudding, strawberry Jell-O with chocolate pudding, and lemon Jell-O with lime pudding.
- Use fresh fruit. Fresh fruit adds a delicious pop of flavor and color to Jell-O pudding squares. Some good options include strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and bananas.
- Don't overmix the Jell-O and pudding. Overmixing can make the mixture too thick and difficult to spread. Simply whisk the two mixtures together until they are just combined.
- Chill the Jell-O pudding squares for at least 4 hours before serving. This will give them time to set properly and develop their full flavor.
- Serve the Jell-O pudding squares with whipped cream, ice cream, or fresh fruit. This will make them even more delicious and decadent!
