Ingredients
  

  • 1 8 oz. block cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 3/4 cup hot chocolate mix about 3 1.38 oz. packages
  • 3 tbsp. milk whole milk works best
  • 1 8 oz. container of Cool Whip or any brand whipped topping
  • 1 pre baked chocolate Oreo pie crust or graham cracker crust store-bought or make your own
  • chocolate syrup and mini marshmallows for garnishing optional

Instructions
 

  • Mix: In a large bowl, combine softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, hot chocolate mix and milk. Use an electric hand mixer on medium speed to blend the ingredients together until smooth (about 30 seconds).
  • Add: Once the mixture is smooth, fold in the Cool Whip (I just use a rubber spatula for this part). Mix well and ensure that there are no pockets of dry powdered sugar or hot chocolate mix in the pie filling. 
  • Pour & freeze: Pour the mixture into the pie crust and use a rubber spatula to smooth out the top. Cover the pie and freeze it for at least 6 hours. 
  • Finish: When you're ready to serve, drizzle chocolate syrup over the top and sprinkle with mini marshmallows. Slice the pie with a warm knife to get nice, clean slices and serve right away!

Notes

Casey's Tips

    • Bring cream cheese to room temperature first. Use softened, room-temperature cream cheese to help you whip up a smoother and creamier pie filling.
    • Storage: I prefer this pie frozen, so cover it store in the freezer (I like using the plastic cover that comes with the pre-made pie crust). The pie is best if consumed (devoured?) after one week.
