To start making Layered Butterscotch Pudding Dessert I dumped some gluten free graham crumbs and melted margarine into a small mixing bowl.

Then I pressed the graham crumbs into the bottom of an 8" square baking pan. I set the pan aside.

Next I prepared a butterscotch pudding and pie filling mix according to the package directions.

I used the microwave method and almond milk since I need to avoid dairy.

Once the pie filling had cooled for about 10 minutes I poured part of it over the graham crumbs in the baking pan.

Then I placed the baking pan and remaining pie filling into the fridge to chill for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes I mixed the remaining pudding with one cup of Cool Whip dessert topping.

Then I dumped the Cool Whip mixed with the pudding over top of the butterscotch pudding in the baking pan.

I used a spatula to evenly spread the mixture.

Then I chopped up some butterscotch chips and set them aside for the finishing touch.

The final layer to spread over the dessert was some Cool Whip dessert topping.

I used a spatula to spread it out to the edges.

Then I sprinkled the chopped butterscotch chips over the top.

I put it in the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours to set.

Then I sliced it up to serve.

Layered Butterscotch Pudding Dessert is a simple recipe that is the perfect ending to any meal.

This lush dessert, with its creamy butterscotch layers, is a light and fluffy treat. 

This simple layered dessert is sure to be a hit whenever you choose to serve it up.
