Easy and creamy with just the right amount of chocolate, this family style pie makes for a wonderful frozen dessert!
So if it’s a frozen pie why does it look a little soft? Glad you asked! 🙂
Because that’s the way everyone in my family loves to eat it, myself included. Just being honest.
This pie is one of those pies that might seem vaguely familiar because we’ve all seen many recipes for various cream pies all over the place.
I assure you this one is my own combo, and every single time I make it the kids devour it! Okay, everyone does.
Sometimes I even make it with a chocolate crust, also very good. For some reason this seems to taste so much better in the Summer.
Easy Creamy Chocolatey Pie – so simple, so good!
Okay, let me show you how to put this pie together.
First just let me say my Easy Creamy Chocolatey Pie freezes up very well!
How soft you let the pie get when it’s served is up to you. After we slice and plate the pie, we like to let our pie warm up at room temp a bit.
Now that I think about it I probably should have photographed the pie right away. But this is how we love to eat it! Just a little soft…
This recipe can certainly be used as a template for numerous variations, depending on the pudding mix, candy bar and pie crust used. 🙂
