9. Spread the chocolate pudding evenly over the raspberry layer.
10. Top with the remaining whipped topping and smooth the surface.

12. Chill for at least 4 hours or overnight before slicing and serving.

Notes
Use fully softened cream cheese so the filling turns out smooth with no lumps.
Chill the dessert overnight for the cleanest slices and the best layered texture.
Add the raspberry garnish right before serving to keep the berries looking fresh and vibrant.
