Ingredients

  • 16 full graham cracker sheets (divided: 12 for the crust layers, 4 for the crushed garnish)
  • 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 cups butterscotch chips
  • 16 oz Cool Whip, thawed (divided: 8 oz for the chocolate filling, 8 oz for the upper cream layer)

Instructions

  1. Prep the base: Line the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish with 6 whole graham crackers in a single layer.
  2. Melt the chips:
    • Combine the chocolate chips and butterscotch chips in a microwave-safe bowl.
    • Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring thoroughly between each interval, until completely melted and smooth.
  3. Make the filling: Let the melted mixture cool for 2–3 minutes so it does not deflate the whipped cream, then gently fold in 8 oz of Cool Whip until fully combined.
  4. First layer: Spread the chocolate-butterscotch filling evenly over the bottom graham crackers.
  5. Middle layer: Place 6 more whole graham crackers over the chocolate filling.
  6. Upper cream layer: Spread the remaining 8 oz of Cool Whip evenly over the middle graham crackers.
  7. Chill & garnish: Refrigerate for at least 1–2 hours to set. When ready to serve, crush the remaining 4 graham crackers into crumbs and sprinkle them over the top.
TipSlicing Tip

For neat, clean slices, run a sharp chef’s knife under hot water and wipe it dry with a paper towel between each cut.
