Description

Creamy chocolate pudding in a graham cracker crust topped with coconut and pecans. A no-bake twist on a classic dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (9-inch) prepared graham cracker crust

  • 1 (3.9 oz) package instant chocolate pudding mix

  • 2 cups cold milk

  • 1 cup shredded sweetened coconut

  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans

  • 1 cup whipped topping or whipped cream

  • Optional garnish: extra coconut, pecans, or chocolate shavings


Instructions

  1. If using a pre-made crust, set aside. If making your own, prepare a graham cracker crust and chill for at least 15 minutes.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk pudding mix with cold milk for 2 minutes until thickened and smooth.

  3. Pour the pudding into the crust and spread evenly with a spatula. Chill while preparing the topping.

  4. In another bowl, mix shredded coconut and chopped pecans. Fold in whipped topping until combined.

  5. Spread the coconut-pecan mixture over the pudding layer. Smooth the top evenly.

  6. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. Garnish before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, toast the pecans before adding them. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze (without topping) for up to 2 months.
