  • 1 cup (or more) vanilla wafer crumbs

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 (8 oz) carton Cool Whip

  3. Add Cool Whip.
  4. Spread over the crust.

  6. Add a few more wafer crumbs on top.

Notes

  • The word after “melted” on the card is unclear — likely an abbreviation for “butter” or “margarine,” recorded here as such.
