Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 gluten-free graham cracker crust
- 1 cup chocolate pudding mix
- 2 cups milk (or dairy-free alternative)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Whipped cream for topping
- Chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: gluten-free graham cracker crust, chocolate pudding mix, milk (or a dairy-free alternative), vanilla extract, whipped cream for topping, and chocolate shavings for garnish.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate pudding mix and the milk. If you are using a dairy-free alternative, make sure it is well-shaken or stirred before measuring.
- Using a whisk or an electric mixer, blend the pudding mix and milk together until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the vanilla extract to the pudding mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
- Once the pudding is well-mixed, pour it into the gluten-free graham cracker crust. Use a spatula to spread the pudding evenly across the crust.
- Cover the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil to prevent it from drying out. Place it in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to allow it to set.
- After the pudding has set, remove the pie from the refrigerator. Top it generously with whipped cream, spreading it evenly over the surface of the pudding.
- For an elegant finish, sprinkle chocolate shavings over the whipped cream topping.
- Slice the pie into 8 equal servings and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious gluten-free no-bake chocolate pudding pie!
Tips
- For the smoothest pudding, whisk or use an electric mixer to eliminate any potential lumps.
- Use room temperature milk for easier mixing and a more consistent texture.
- Chill the pie for at least 15-20 minutes to ensure the perfect set and enhance flavor melding.
- For a dairy-free version, choose a milk alternative like almond or oat milk that has a creamy consistency.
- To create elegant chocolate shavings, use a vegetable peeler on a room temperature chocolate bar.
- For extra indulgence, consider using dark chocolate shavings or adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top.
- Store the pie in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days for optimal freshness and taste.
