Lemon Lush

Lushes are a staple on any southern dessert table. They can be made in many different flavors. Here is my recipe for the lemon version.

In a bowl, combine 1 c. self-rising flour, 1 stick softened butter and 1/2 c. chopped pecans. Press into bottom of 9X13 pan and bake at 375 for 15 mins. Allow to cool. Mix together 1 block cream cheese, 1 c. sugar and then stir in 1 c. cool whip. Spoon onto crust. Mix 2 boxes of lemon instant pudding and 3 c. milk. Pour onto dessert. Cover with remainder of cool whip. Garnish with extra nuts or lemon slices, if desired. Chill.

What is your favorite dessert? I’d love to hear from you in the comments!
