Ingredients

  • 2 Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix 4 serving size
  • 1 Cup Pumpkin Puree
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice
  • 2 Cups Cold Milk at least 2%
  • 1 Cup Whipped Topping
  • 1 9-inch baked Pie Shell or a pre-made Graham Cracker crust

Instructions

  • Prepare and bake a pie shell for a 9-inch pie. (Or buy or make a graham cracker crust).
  • In a large bowl, beat the instant pudding mixes, pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and whole milk together for 1 minute.
  • FOLD in the cool whip or homemade whipped cream if you prefer.
  • Remember to fold, not stir, as stirring causes the whipped cream to go flat.
  • Pour the pumpkin mixture into the cooled crust and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
  • Slice and serve with additional whipped cream!

Notes

  • 2% milk will do in a pinch but won't set up as thick.  Don't use 1% or skim milk because the filling won't set up at all.
  • Get my recipe here to make a homemade pie crust.
  • 1 cup of heavy whipping cream beat to stiff peaks with ⅛ cup of powdered sugar, and a splash of vanilla can be substituted for the cool whip.
