Possum Pie
With sweet layers of chocolate pudding, cream cheese, and whipped topping, Possum Pie is a childhood favorite, just the way grandma made it!
Servings: 12 servings (2 pies total)
Ingredients
- 1¼ cups flour
- ½ cup finely chopped pecans plus ¼ cup for topping
- ½ cup butter melted
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 8 ounces Cool Whip divided
- 3½ cups milk
- 3.4 ounce package instant vanilla pudding mix
- 3.4 ounce package instant chocolate pudding mix
- chocolate shavings for decoration
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease 2 pie pans with butter and set aside. Combine the flour, ½ cup pecans and melted butter in a small bowl and stir to combine. Divide the mixture between the pie pans and press to form crusts. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- Combine the cream cheese and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Add half the container of Cool Whip and gently fold it into the mixture. Divide between the pie crusts and spread across the bottom of each in an even layer.
- Combine the milk with the chocolate and vanilla pudding mixes and whisk until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Divide between the pies, pouring over the cream cheese in an even layer.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before topping with the remaining Cool Whip. Sprinkle with the remaining nuts and add some chocolate shavings if desired.
