How to Make Mounds Almond Joy French Silk Pie

  1. In a large bowl, prepare the instant chocolate pudding according to package directions, substituting buttermilk for the required milk.
  2. Stir in the almond extract until well combined.
  3. Set the pudding mixture aside.
  4. In a small bowl, sprinkle the Knox gelatin over the cold water. Let it bloom for about 5 minutes.
  5. Place the bowl of gelatin mixture in a saucepan filled with simmering water (double boiler method). Stir gently until the gelatin is completely dissolved and the mixture is clear.
  6. Remove the bowl from the hot water and let it cool slightly.
  7. Gradually whisk the dissolved gelatin into the chocolate pudding mixture until smooth.
  8. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  9. Pour the mixture into the prepared graham cracker pie crust.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely.
  11. Before serving, garnish with toasted coconut flakes and chopped almonds (optional).
