Equipment

  • Stand Mixer
  • 9-inch pie plate
  • medium bowl
  • Food processor

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 12 sheets graham crackers finely crushed
  • 6 tablespoons butter melted

Filling

  • 2.5 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 0.5 cups confectioner's sugar
  • 7.8 ounces instant chocolate pudding 2 packages
  • 1 cups cold milk
  • 0.5 cups salted caramel sauce
  • grated chocolate from a chocolate bar

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Place the bowl and whisk attachment of a stand mixer into the freezer to chill.
  • Preheat the oven to 375° F.
  • Place the graham cracker crumbs into a medium bowl. Pour in the melted butter. Stir until all the crumbs are moistened.
  • Press the butter-crumb mixture into an even layer over the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
  • Bake the shell for 15 minutes until it is a deep golden brown. Remove and let the crust cool completely.
  • Assemble the chilled bowl and whisk on the stand mixer and pour the whipping cream into the bowl. Whisk the cream on high.
  • Slowly add in the confectioner's sugar as the mixer is running. Whisk the cream for about 3-5 minutes until it holds stiff peaks.
  • In a large bowl, combine the milk and ONE of the pudding mixes. Whisk them together.
  • Stir in 3 cups of the whipped cream.
  • Sprinkle the second box of pudding mix over the mixture and stir it in. Stir until the mixture is smooth—it will be thick.
  • Spoon the chocolate pudding mixture into the crust. Use the back of a spoon to smooth the top.
  • Drizzle the salted caramel evenly over the top of the chocolate filling.
  • Spread the rest of the whipped cream over the caramel, smoothing it edge to edge. Sprinkle the grated chocolate over the top.
  • Cover and refrigerate the pie for at least 15 minutes, or even for a few hours to overnight.
  • Slice and serve the pie immediately.

Notes

If you have never tried making your own graham cracker pie crust, you'll be surprised at just how easy it is! It's important to use instant pudding; do not use 'cook 'n serve' varieties.
