I made this for our Sunday School class Christmas party. It turned out well. I think next time, I will make twice as much of the Peppermint Cheesecake Layer. It seemed thin compared to the pudding layer. Another option would be using just one box of pudding mix for the pudding layer to make the layers more even. I did not use marshmallows. I used M&M’s Baking Bits, Christmas tree sprinkles, and crushed peppermint to top the final Cool Whip layer.

I loved this and it was a big hit at our party! I’m not sure if the recipe has changed since the last review, but the ounces of pudding needed seem to me to be very clear in the ingredient list. I did add some pistachios to the green layer and loved it.
