If you’re hoping to make one of the best desserts you possibly can, then you may decide to choose jello pudding pie. It’s a fantastic choice and tastes amazing.
In order to make the pudding pie, you will need to start by creating the pie crust. For this step, you will need the following ingredients:
Flour
Iced water
Salt
Sugar
Unsalted butter
Start by thoroughly mixing the salt, sugar and flour by using a food processor.
You can do this by hand if you need to, but it’s highly recommended that you use a food processor or blender so you can get the finest results.
From there, you will take the now created mixture and pour it into a mixing bowl.
Continue to mix this mixture by hand and then add butter and flour.
Continue to mix this until you notice the mixture begins to clump together.
Next, you will add the iced water and then use a spatula to keep mixing it all together. This stage may take a little longer than the previous steps.
Now, using your hands – you will create a ball by using the dough and then pack it down until you create a plate or disk shape.
Wrap this shape by using plastic wrap and then place it into the refrigerator for at least an hour.
This will help all the ingredients to bind together and become more solid for later use.
When this is finally finished, you will then roll this out into a circular shape for the crust.
Jello Pudding Filling
For the filling of your jello pudding pie, you will need the following ingredients:
Whipped cream
Whole milk
Pie crust
Jello pudding mix (chocolate)
You start by adding the desired amount of milk into a bowl along with some jello pudding mix.
For the next two to three minutes, you will whip this up to ensure you are making a good thick mixture.
Once this jello pudding mixture is entirely mixed together, you need to place it into the refrigerator for around half an hour or so until the pudding mixture settles.
After this is done, put the mixture inside the pie crust shell and then top it with beautiful whipped cream.
If you want to really add an extra layer of tastiness to the pudding mixture, you can sprinkle the whipped cream with chocolate shavings!
Assembling Your Jello Pudding Pie
Okay, so at this stage you have your pie crust shell and you have your jello pudding pie mixture – but we’re not yet finished.
Here’s how you now put everything together and finally be able to enjoy a jello pudding pie.
Set up your pie crust so it is flat on the surface and then pour in your jello pudding pie mixture.
Now, you’re going to want to smooth down the pudding mixture inside the pie crust shell.
Once this is all smoothed out and looks great, you will want to get some plastic wrap and cover the pie so you can then place it into the refrigerator.
After the pie has been in the refrigerator for about an hour or so, you can then add any desired toppings you choose.
Depending on your jello pudding mix, you may decide to match the toppings with it – for example, chocolate jello mix with chocolate chips.
Storing Your Jello Pudding Pie
Regardless if you are using store bought jello pudding pie or you have made jello pudding pie, you will need to store the dessert correctly to ensure you are not spoiling it.
You can store this in the refrigerator for up to a week if you have used plastic wrap or other container.
Not necessarily. However, if you find that your mixture is still very weak and more of a liquid consistency – then it is a good idea to actually substitute milk entirely for double cream instead.
This should help to thicken up the entire mixture, rather than adding more milk which might give you worse results.
The Bottom Line
For jello pudding pie, you will need to use between two and four cups of milk – but it will depend on the batch size you are making and your own personal preference.
Have you ever made something so delicious that you wished you could savor it forever?
Only to find that the recipe has now mysteriously vanished from your phone and the entirety of the internet. Yep, there’s not much more painful than that.
