Equipment

Ingredients

For the Crust:

  • 1 ¼ cup chocolate graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter

For the Filling:

  • 12 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 2 cup cold milk
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 3.4 ounce package Jell-O Chocolate Instant Pudding and Pie Filling

Instructions

For the Crust:

  • Combine the crushed chocolate graham cracker crumbs in a bowl.
  • Add the melted butter and ¼ cup sugar.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Add the crumbs to the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate.
  • Press firmly on the bottom and up the sides a little bit.
  • Place the pie plate in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.

For the Filling:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the cream cheese.
  • Beat until very soft.
  • Add the milk starting with ½ cup at first and then add the remaining milk.
  • Finally add the 2 tablespoons sugar, vanilla, and pudding mix.
  • Beat for another few minutes until everything is combined and smooth.
  • Remove the chilled crust from the refrigerator.
  • Pour the cheesecake filling into the crust.
  • Return the pie plate back to the refrigerator to chill for another 1-2 hours or until firm.
  • Garnish the top of the pie with whipped topping and extra chocolate graham cracker crumbs.
  • You could also garnish with fresh fruit if desired.

Notes

  • Let the cream cheese come to room temperature for a smooth filling. Start mixing with the paddle attachment, then switch to a whisk when adding the pudding mix.
  • For the crust, finely crush the graham crackers and mix well with melted butter to help it hold together—chilling the crust while making the filling also helps.
  • Can’t find chocolate grahams? Chocolate Teddy Grahams are a great substitute!
  • Add fresh berries or sliced bananas on top for a delicious garnish!
