This No-Bake Chocolate Pudding Pie recipe features a creamy chocolate pudding layer, a dreamy cheesecake filling, and a buttery graham cracker crust. It’s a simple, delicious dessert that requires no oven and is perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¼ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ⅓ cup butter, melted
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ cups Cool Whip, divided
  • 1 ¾ cups cold milk
  • 1 (3.9 oz) box instant chocolate pudding mix
  • Optional: grated chocolate or toppings of choice

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until fully combined.
  2. Press the crust mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish, covering the bottom and sides. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in 1 cup of Cool Whip until well incorporated.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the chilled crust.
  5. In another bowl, whisk cold milk with instant chocolate pudding mix for about 2 minutes until slightly thickened.
  6. Spread the pudding layer over the cream cheese mixture evenly.
  7. Refrigerate the pie for at least 3–4 hours or overnight to fully set.
  8. Before serving, top with remaining Cool Whip and optional garnishes like chocolate shavings.
  9. Slice, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use instant pudding mix, not cook-and-serve.
  • Whole milk works best for setting the pudding.
  • To get clean slices, chill overnight and use a sharp knife, wiping between cuts.
  • Insert toothpicks before covering to prevent plastic wrap from sticking to the topping.
  • Homemade whipped cream can be used but should be added just before serving.
