Ingredients
Scale
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups cold milk
- 2 (3.4-ounce) boxes instant pistachio pudding mix
- 1 (8-ounce) tub Cool Whip, thawed
- 1 (6-ounce) 9 inch prepared graham cracker pie crust
- Whipped topping for garnish
- Maraschino cherries for garnish
- Chopped pistachios for garnish
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, beat softened cream cheese until creamy, about 1 minute.
- Add cold milk and pudding mix and continue to beat until the mixture thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
- Fold in the thawed Cool Whip until well combined.
- Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust.
- Refrigerate for 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Decoratively top with whipped topping, maraschino cherries, and chopped pistachios before serving.
Notes
Use instant pistachio pudding mix, not the cook-and-serve variety. Full-fat cream cheese works best for the creamiest texture. Thaw Cool Whip overnight in the refrigerator for best results.
