Add a photoThis rich, sweet, sinful, delicious dessert is not called "Sex in a pan" for nothing. You decide. LOL Great for any occasion. One of my favourite desserts. Yummy!
Ingredients
- BASE:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (250 ml)
- 1/2 cup (125 ml) butter

I call my recipe like this "chocolate Lush". Its great. I could eat the whole thing. LolI've cooked/tasted this recipe!

This is wonderful !!! I found it in a cookbook I bought over 25 yrs ago now .. whatever name you call it whatever pudding flavor you use (I use Vanilla and Chocolate.. )it is awesome!! You can also freeze it for those who like frozen desserts and I put a layer of thinly sliced bananas on top of the cookie bottom before the fillngs! YUMl ...to answer "what icing sugar is".. it is in nothern american stores called icing sugar in the sugar aisle and usually in a clear plastic bag now.. and it is just powdered sugar that most people use to make icing for cakes or add to their shortbread Xmas cookie recipe.. . **To the woman who said this was gross and so un-healthy**.. yes it's not the healthiest with artifical cool whip and instant puddings having so much sodium BUT people only have it once in awhile and life is too short to be such a party pooper.. so don't make it don't eat it and the rest of us will ENJOY what we know is a GREAT "to die for .. treat"! The name says it all SEX in a pan..it's that good! ...Dena Western Canada :)1 replyI've cooked/tasted this recipe!This is a variation3 people like this review-

- January 12, 2012Ugh. Cool Whip? Grossly artificial. Instant Pudding? Come on guys. What has happened to real food. That artificial stuff is really disgusting.1 reply
December 5, 2011Oh my goodness, this looks amazing!!!!! I think we need to try this for Christmas!- November 4, 2011sounds interesting and i love the taste my mom made it last week sunday for my man birthday and he like it maaaaaaaaaaaaaad
September 15, 2011Looking forward to trying this! I have to use a non gluten flour, due to Mom's allergies, but her eyes lit up when I showed it to her...lol
September 4, 2011My hubby says all yummy food should have such an attractive name! Going to try this soon, thanks!- June 12, 2011This is different than Better Than Sex Cake which starts with a cake mix.I am going to try this one soon.
January 15, 2011This is an old recipe- my word- it's amazing how recipes can take us back. My grandmother made this back in the 80s whenever her workplace had a potluck party. There were never leftovers. She would make an extra pan just for us.
I remember then it was called "Better Than Sex Cake".
October 31, 2010This sounds and looks pretty sinful! It's a must try with the great combo of ingredients!_small.jpg "Rachele Bennett")
