How to Make Chocolate Cheese Pudding Pie
- Soften 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter to room temperature.
- In a large bowl, combine the softened butter, 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, and ½ cup chopped pecans. Cut in using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely.
- While the crust is baking, prepare a 3.4-ounce package of instant chocolate pudding according to package directions using the required amount of milk (usually 2 cups). Let it cool completely.
- In a separate bowl, beat 8 ounces of cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add 1 cup of granulated sugar, beating until well combined.
- Gently fold in 8 ounces of Cool Whip (1 cup).
- Pour the cream cheese mixture into the cooled crust.
- Spread the cooled chocolate pudding evenly over the cream cheese layer.
- Top with the remaining 8 ounces of Cool Whip (1 cup).
- Sprinkle with ¼ cup of chopped pecans.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving to allow flavors to meld and the pie to set completely.
