Ingredients
- 1 (5 ounce) package Jell-O Cook & Serve Chocolate Pudding & Pie Filling (do not use instant pudding mix)

For a homemade Graham Cracker Crust:
- 12 full-size graham crackers, crushed or processed into fine crumbs
- ¼ cup sugar

Instructions
For a Homemade Graham Cracker Crust
- If you’re making your crust from scratch, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a large bowl. Toss until all of the crumbs are evenly coated in butter (you can also mix the ingredients in a food processor). Set aside about 1-2 tablespoons of crumbs to garnish the top of your pie, if desired. Press crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of a deep-dish 9-inch pie dish and bake at 375°F for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow pie crust to cool completely before filling.
For the Pie Filling
- Whisk together dry chocolate pudding mix, milk, and Baker’s Chocolate in a medium saucepan. Bring to a full boil over medium heat, whisking constantly. Make sure that all of the chocolate is completely melted and incorporated into the pudding. The mixture should be completely smooth. Remove the saucepan from the heat. The filling will thicken as it cools, so wait about 5 minutes, whisking regularly so that the filling stays nice and smooth.
- After about 5 minutes, the filling should start to thicken. Pour the filling into the prepared crust. Sprinkle with reserved graham cracker crumbs, if desired.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours (or overnight), until the filling is set. Slice and serve with whipped cream or Cool Whip on top.
Notes
- Make sure that you use a 5 ounce box of the Cook and Serve pudding. This is the larger box sold. The small boxes are only 3.4 ounces.
- Do NOT use instant pudding mix for this recipe. You want the "Cook and Serve" version.
