How to Make Creamy Layers Chocolate Mint Pie

  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together 2 cups milk and 3.4 oz (1 packet) instant chocolate pudding mix until smooth.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and begins to bubble (about 2-3 minutes).
  3. Reduce heat to low and stir in 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips until completely melted and smooth.
  4. Pour the chocolate pudding mixture into a 9-inch baked pie crust and refrigerate while you prepare the mint topping.
  5. In a large bowl, beat 8 oz reduced-fat cream cheese with 1/2 cup powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
  6. Add 1 teaspoon peppermint extract and a few drops of green food coloring; beat until well combined and fluffy (about 1-2 minutes).
  7. Gently fold in 1 cup light whipped topping until just combined.
  8. Carefully spread the mint cream cheese mixture over the chilled chocolate pudding layer.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until the pie is completely set and firm.
  10. Garnish with chopped chocolate-covered mint candies before serving.
  11. Store leftover pie in the refrigerator.
