I am so excited to share this blueberry pudding dessert with you today! This recipe is an old family favorite from Mike’s family and it has developed an almost legendary status in family circles. I was lucky enough to be given the recipe at my bridal shower (it is Mike’s favorite dessert!) and have made it quite a few times since we’ve been married. I actually made it just a few weeks ago to celebrate my father-in-law’s birthday (it’s his favorite dessert as well), and decided to actually take the time to snap some photos. I took this picture of the leftovers after everyone had left, which means you get to see one of the semi-messy end pieces. 🙂
The dessert has a nilla wafer crust, a vanilla pudding/cream cheese layer, and a blueberry topping.  Then you spread some cool whip over the whole thing, sprinkle the top with more nilla wafer crumbs, and try not to eat all of it in one sitting. 🙂 It’s one of those classic pudding desserts that everyone loves and nobody ever gets tired of. We love blueberries in our family, but I’m pretty sure my mother-in-law has also successfully made it with strawberries. Whatever kind of berry you use, you are sure to love this dessert!
P.S. Mike’s second favorite dessert from his grandma growing up consisted of pouring generous helpings of this Blueberry Sauce on her waffles or pancakes. Luckily he said I nailed it when I made it the first time for him!
