Equipment
- 9-inch pie dish
- Whisk
Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 ½ cups chocolate cookie crumbs about 24 chocolate sandwich cookies, finely crushed
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted
For the Filling:
- 2 box instant chocolate pudding mix 3.9 oz each
- 2 cups cold milk
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips melted and slightly cooled
- 1 container Cool Whip 8 oz, thawed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional Toppings:
- Cool Whip or whipped cream
- Chocolate shavings, mini marshmallows, or chocolate sauce
Instructions
- Combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter in a mixing bowl. Stir until the crumbs are fully coated with butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and thickened (about 2 minutes).
- Gently fold in the melted chocolate chips and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Gently fold in the Cool Whip until the filling is light, creamy, and fully combined.
- Pour the filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Before serving, spread or pipe additional Cool Whip or whipped cream over the top of the pie, if desired. Garnish with chocolate shavings, mini marshmallows, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce. Slice and enjoy!
