Chocolate Pudding Pie
Hi Everyone, Chocolate Pudding Pie is a dessert that you can have year-round (even on birthdays!).
It’s so easy to make with common, pantry, store-bought ingredients like a chocolate cookie pie crust, pudding mix, whipped topping, sprinkles, and maraschino cherries.
This is a great recipe to make with kids (depending on their age), they can add the toppings.
We love how this pie is not overly sweet and is definitely a retro kind of dessert recipe that holds up to the modern-day.
Of course, you can make Homemade Whipped Cream and a Homemade Chocolate Cookie Pie Crust if you want!

Chocolate Pudding Pie with whipped topping, colorful sprinkles, and maraschino cherries
- In a large mixing bowl, add the milk, gradually add the pudding mix into the milk, whisking as you add it so that it mixes evenly without clumps. Continue whisking for 2 minutes or until the pudding is smooth. It should be thick in its consistency. Gently fold in the whipped topping (Cool Whip) until it’s evenly incorporated. Spoon the pudding mixture into the chocolate pie crust; use an offset spatula to smooth the top. Refrigerate the Chocolate Pudding Pie (covered) for 4 hours (until it’s set) or overnight.
an offset spatula can make the top of the pie nice and level ready to decorate!
2. When the pie is set, add 4 ounces of whipped topping to the top, sprinkles, and garnish with maraschino cherries. Serve and enjoy!
