Crust:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine the flour, chopped pecans and melted butter. To make a crust that holds together nicely, pecans need to be ground or chopped finely. Stir these three ingredients until well-blended and crumbly.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking pan/dish.
Bake 15 minutes. Cool.
Layers:
With electric beater, mix cream cheese and powered sugar until smooth and creamy. Fold in 1 cup whipped topping; spread over cooled crust.
Whisk together pudding and milk; add lemon juice; stir until thick. Spread pudding mixture over cream cheese layer.
Spoon remaining whipped topping over pudding. Sprinkle top with remaining chopped pecans.
Refrigerate 4 hours. Serve.
