Recipe View 4 hrs Chill (at least 4 hours): Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set completely.

For a richer flavor, use a combination of milk and heavy cream for the pudding layers.
To prevent the crust from becoming soggy, you can pre-bake it at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes and let it cool completely before adding the other layers.
Feel free to substitute other nuts for the peanuts, such as chopped pecans or walnuts.
If you don't have confectioners' sugar, you can make your own by blending granulated sugar in a food processor until it's a fine powder.
For a more intense chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate shavings instead of semisweet chocolate.
