Ingredients
- 1 graham cracker pie crust
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 package (3.4 oz) vanilla instant pudding mix
- 1 1/2 cups whipped topping
- 16 small chocolate eggs or candies of your choice
Instructions
-
Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until it becomes fluffy and smooth. Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk, continuing to beat until fully combined and smooth.
-
Add the Pudding Mix: Stir in the water and vanilla instant pudding mix. Beat on low speed until the mixture is well blended and smooth, ensuring there are no lumps.
-
Incorporate the Whipped Topping: Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is evenly combined, taking care not to deflate the light and airy texture of the whipped topping.
-
Assemble the Pie: Spoon half of the creamy filling into the graham cracker pie crust, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the small chocolate eggs or candies over this layer of filling.
-
Finish the Pie: Top with the remaining filling, smoothing it out with a spatula to cover the candies completely.
-
Chill the Pie: Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours to allow the filling to set properly and for the flavors to meld together.
-
Garnish and Serve: Once chilled, garnish the pie as desired with additional candies or festive decorations. Serve chilled and enjoy!
-
Storage: Store any leftovers in the refrigerator. The pie will keep well for up to a week.
