Notes

Note: The pudding will not set with dairy-free or lactose-free milk. Make sure you are using regular milk in this recipe.
Note: Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature so that it blends nice and smooth and doesn’t leave you with lumps in your cream cheese-peanut butter layer.
Note: Be sure to allow layers to cool where indicated.
