The Best Jello pudding pie Recipe

This chocolate dessert is one of my go-to recipes during the holidays. It's simple to prepare with just a few easy-to-find ingredients, and it only takes 15 minutes!

The result is a luxuriously rich chocolate pie that will satisfy any chocolate craving. And the pie filling is so good that you literally could just eat it with a spoon. Let me tell ya though if you put it on a buttery, tender pie crust, it creates one heck of a pie.

Ingredients

So, this Jello pudding pie uses pretty basic ingredients, and there's nothing you won't easily find at the grocery store - which is another reason why I love making this no bake chocolate dessert recipe so much.

Anyway, here's what you need to make this decadent pie:

• Two 3 ½. oz Chocolate Pudding Mix
• 3 1⁄2 cups Milk
• 2 tbsp. Butter
• 1⁄3 cup Chocolate Chips
• 1 cup Sugar
• ½ cup Cocoa Powder
• ¼ cup Cornstarch
• ½ tsp. Salt
• 1 Baked Pie Crust

So, as you probably noticed, the chocolate filling for this Jello pudding pie is mainly chocolate pudding mix. The flavor and texture of the Jello instant pudding mix just works perfectly to create an insanely delicious filling. Then, when you mix it with a little cocoa powder and chocolate chips you've got yourself one of the richest, most decadent chocolate desserts you'll ever make!

Pie Crust Options

So, for the pie crust, you can buy a frozen one in the supermarket and just follow the instructions on how to bake it.

Or, you can make a pie crust from scratch if that's more your style.

However, if you want to skip having to bake a crust and make a completely no bake chocolate pudding pie, you have two options. You can either buy a premade graham cracker crust or an Oreo pie crust.

Both work great to make this instant pudding pie, and you can even rotate which crust you use every time you make this recipe!

How To Make Jello Pudding Pie

As I've mentioned, this chocolate pudding pie recipe is pretty simple to make.

Even if you've never made a pie before, you'll find this recipe super simple, and it'll turn out absolutely perfect.

Now, let's not waste any more time, let's dive into the recipe!

Step 1: Preparing the Pie Crust

So, the first thing you'll have to do is prepare the pie crust. If you have decided to use a frozen one, then start by baking it according to the package's instructions.

Or, if you're making one from scratch, that's the first thing you'll want to do.

Step 2: Preparing the Pie Filling

Now, once the pie crust is baking, you can make the instant chocolate pudding filling.

So, to do that you'll want to add the milk, butter, instant pudding, chocolate chips, sugar, baking powder, cornstarch, and salt to a pot set over medium-low heat. Then, continuously stir the chocolate pudding mixture until everything has melted and is combined.

Step 3: Building the Chocolate Pudding Pie

The last step for this chocolate pie is pouring the filling over the pie crust.

So, once the crust is ready, pour the filling on top of it and use a rubber spatula to get all of the filling out of the pot.

Now top the pie with some chocolate curls, chocolate chips, or mini chocolate chips, and refrigerate it for about 3 hours or until it sets.

Then, once it sets, slice the pie into about 8 slices, serve topped with some whipped cream, and enjoy!

How to Store Instant Pudding Pie

This easy chocolate pudding pie will make about 6 or 8 slices, depending on how you cut it.

So, if you have any pie left, you can either wrap the pie dish with plastic wrap or transfer the pie slices to an airtight container. It will stay good like this for up to 2 days in the fridge.

Then, whenever you want to enjoy a slice of this instant pudding pie, take it out of the fridge, top with whipped cream, and enjoy!
