Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup cold butter
1 cup chopped walnuts, toasted, divided
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 cartons (8 ounces each) frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided
2 1/2 cups 2% milk
2 packages (3.9 ounces each) instant chocolate pudding mixes
1 cup semisweet chocolate chunks
chocolate syrup

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°. Place flour in a small bowl; cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in 1/2 cup walnuts. Press onto bottom of an ungreased 13x9-in. baking dish. Bake until light golden brown, 12-15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.

In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth; fold in 1 carton whipped topping. Spread over crust. In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Gently spread over cream cheese layer. Top with remaining whipped topping. Sprinkle with chocolate chunks and remaining walnuts. Refrigerate until cold.

Cut into bars. Just before serving, drizzle with chocolate syrup.
