Total Time 4 hours 15 minutes
Servings 8

Ingredients

  • 1 pre-made graham cracker crust
  • 1 ½ cups Hershey’s milk chocolate bars melted
  • 1 8 oz container of whipped topping (Cool Whip)
  • 1 8 oz package of cream cheese (softened)
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional toppings: chocolate shavings whipped cream, crushed nuts, or caramel drizzle

Instructions

  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the Hershey’s chocolate bars in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and continue mixing until well combined.
  • Gradually pour in the melted Hershey’s chocolate, mixing continuously until fully incorporated.
  • Gently fold in the whipped topping using a spatula until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
  • Pour the chocolate filling into the pre-made graham cracker crust, spreading evenly.
  • Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
  • Before serving, garnish with optional toppings like chocolate shavings, extra whipped cream, or a drizzle of caramel for an extra touch of indulgence.
  • Slice, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Let the melted chocolate cool slightly before mixing it with the cream cheese to prevent curdling.
  • Use full-fat cream cheese for the creamiest texture and best flavor.
  • Make it ahead of time—this pie tastes even better after chilling overnight!
  • Experiment with toppings like crushed Oreos, toasted coconut, or peanut butter drizzle for a fun twist.
  • For a firmer texture, freeze the pie for about 1 hour before serving for a chilled, mousse-like consistency.
