image

Instant pudding and a pre-made Oreo crust make this decadent dessert easy as pie. Give it plenty of time to cool so it cuts cleanly.


Ingredients:
3 squares semi-sweet baking chocolate, melted 
1/4 C canned sweetened condensed milk 
1-6oz Oreo pie crust 
2 C cold milk 
2 pkg (4-serving size each) chocolate flavor instant pudding & pie filling 
1-8oz tub cool whip whipped topping, thawed


Method

Mix chocolate and condensed milk until well blended. Pour into crust. Pour milk into large bowl. Add dry pudding mixes. Beat with wire whisk 2 minutes or until well blended. (Mixture will be thick) Spoon 1 1/2 cups of the pudding over chocolate layer. Add half of the whipped topping to remaining pudding; stir with wire whisk until well blended. Spread over pudding layer in crust; top with remaining whipped topping. Refrigerate 3 hours.
