Ingredients
  

Pudding Filling
  • 1 package (14 ounces) Chocolate Pudding Mix (Instant)
  • 3 cups Milk (Cold)
Whipped Cream Topping
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream (Cold)
  • 2 tablespoons Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • as needed Chocolate Shavings For garnish (optional)

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls (2)
  • Electric Mixer
  • 9-inch Graham Cracker Crust
  • Spatula

Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and creamy. No lumps should remain.
  2. Let the pudding sit for 5 minutes to slightly thicken.
  3. Pour the chocolate pudding into the prepared graham cracker crust. Gently spread to ensure an even layer.
  4. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
  5. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
  6. Spoon the whipped cream over the chocolate pudding. Spread evenly to create a smooth layer.
  7. Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pudding to set completely and the flavors to meld.
  8. Before serving, garnish with chocolate shavings (optional). Cut into slices and enjoy!

Notes

For a richer flavor, use full-fat milk and heavy cream. You can also add a pinch of salt to enhance the chocolate flavor. Feel free to experiment with different toppings, such as fresh berries or chocolate syrup.
