Ingredients
Crust
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 6 tablespoons butter
Filling
- 1 ½ cups half and half cream
- 1 (3.9 ounce) envelope instant chocolate pudding mix
- 1 (8 ounce) container whipped topping
- ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup miniature marshmallows
- ½ cup chopped roasted almonds
Garnish (optional)
- Melted chocolate chips for drizzling
- Extra marshmallows
- Extra chopped roasted almonds
- Extra chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Melt the butter and stir it into the crumb mixture until evenly coated.
- Form the crust: Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to create the crust layer.
- Mix the pudding: In another large bowl, whisk together the half and half cream and the instant chocolate pudding mix for 2 minutes until the mixture is well combined and starts to thicken slightly.
- Combine filling ingredients: Gently fold in the whipped topping, semisweet chocolate chips, miniature marshmallows, and chopped roasted almonds into the pudding mixture until evenly distributed.
- Assemble the pie: Pour the prepared filling into the graham cracker crust, smoothing the top as needed.
- Freeze the pie: Place the pie in the freezer and allow it to freeze for 6 hours or until fully set and firm.
- Garnish and serve: If desired, drizzle melted chocolate chips over the top and sprinkle with additional marshmallows, almonds, and chocolate chips for decoration. Slice and serve chilled.
Notes
- Use softened butter for easy mixing with the graham cracker crumbs.
- The pie must be frozen for at least 6 hours to ensure it sets properly and holds its shape when sliced.
- Substitute chopped pecans or walnuts if roasted almonds are unavailable.
- For a dairy-free version, use non-dairy cream substitutes and whipped topping alternatives.
- Chill all ingredients before assembling for improved texture.
- To add extra texture and flavor, consider folding in toffee bits or crushed cookies into the filling.
