Notes
Use instant pudding, never Cook and Serve, or the layers will not set.
Chill each layer before adding the next so they stay distinct and pretty.
Freeze for 15 to 30 minutes before slicing for clean, neat squares.
Wipe the knife between cuts to keep the layers looking sharp.
Make it a day or two ahead so it has plenty of time to set up.
