When I started dating my now husband, I was introduced to what his family calls Chocolate Fantastic. This pie is well…fantastic! I’ve had plenty of chocolate pudding pies in my life but this pie is in a whole different category. It has 3 delicious layers and the crust is no ordinary crust, it has pecans in it which give the entire pie a little element of surprise.
For this recipe you will need to chop up a good amount of pecans. I absolutely love my little chopper! This one even has the measurements on the side so you don’t have to guess (Paid Link) https://amzn.to/30QoLSJ. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Chocolate Fantastic Pie
A thick and creamy pudding pie
Ingredients
- Crust
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- ½ cup softened butter
- 1st Layer
- 8 oz softened cream cheese
- 1 cup cool whip
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- Mix all ingredients together
- 2nd Layer
- 3 cups milk
- 2 small boxes of instant pudding (1 vanilla and 1 chocolate)
- Mix all ingredients together
- 3rd Layer (Topping)
- Cool whip
- Chopped pecans
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine ingredients for crust (I do this by mixing with my hand) and flatten in a 9 inch pie pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes until crust is golden brown.
While crust is baking, make the second layer and put in refrigerator. After crust cools, add all layers and put entire pie in refrigerator.
Notes
I was told that this freezes well but I have not actually tried it.
