This easy no bake chocolate cream pie rich, creamy and chocolatey without the hassle of making homemade custard! Perfect for potlucks, barbecues and holiday gatherings.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and powdered sugar.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the chocolate pudding mix and milk.
Add the chocolate pudding and 1 cup of the cool whip to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until well combined, scraping the sides as needed. I like to use a whisk to press up any lumps.
Pour the pie mixture into the crust.
Cover with a piece of plastic wrap, and allow the pie to chill for 4 hours, or overnight.
Before serving, top with an extra 1 cup of cool whip and smooth out evenly.
Also, top with chocolate chips if desired.
Notes
It's actually pretty easy to make your own graham cracker crust if you need to! Just pulse graham crackers in a food processor until you have 1.5 cups of crumbs. To the crumbs, add a tablespoon of sugar for a little sweetness, and 7 tablespoons of melted butter. Stir to moisten the crumbs, then press them into a pie tin.
