❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular graham crackers?

Yes. Regular graham crackers work fine, but the calorie and point value will increase slightly.

Can I substitute full-fat cream cheese?

Yes, but it will make the dessert richer and higher in calories. Fat-free keeps it lighter.

Can I use homemade whipped cream instead of whipped topping?

You can, but the texture may be slightly softer. Stabilized whipped cream works best.

How long does it last in the fridge?

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.

Can I freeze it?

Yes. Freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.

Can I use chocolate pudding instead of vanilla?

Absolutely! That creates a double-chocolate version.
