This Chocolate Lasagna Recipe and Posh Pudding Dessert are similar desserts. Both are light and fluffly chocolate and vanilla with light and crunchy crusts!
I have been using this posh pudding recipe for over 40 years now and it has been a staple for me. The second recipe is just another version of it. Both are equally delicious.
Posh Pudding

1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup flour
1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine or butter, melted
Mix and press into a 9×13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes. Cool.

looks great
Both sound SO YUMMY!
What is your whipped topping (cream)
You can use real cream and whip it with a little sugar added or what I use is like Cool Whip which comes frozen in a container.
What can I use instead of nuts in the crust? My husband is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts.
Carolyn you could probably leave the nuts out with out any problem. I haven’t tried it before but maybe a cup of crushed pretzels might give it a nice texture and taste. It is the salty sweet that we are aiming for so I think that might work.
you can use crushed graham crackers.Don’t crush them completely.I sub this for nuts all the time in recipes as I’m allergic too.
Also called a Mississippi Mud dessert. My niece makes this for holidays. One of my absolute favorites!
Would like to get your choclate Lasgana
Thank you
