Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 Oreo pie crust

Pudding Filling

  • 1 box white chocolate pudding (3.9 oz)
  • 2 cups 2% milk (cold)
  • 2-3 drops neon green gel food coloring
  • 1-2 drops green food coloring

Toppings

  • ½ container Cool Whip
  • ½ cup green sanding sugar
  • ½ cup mini red heart sprinkles
  • ½ cup large red heart sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Prepare Pudding: Beat the white chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of cold 2% milk, adding 2-3 drops of neon green gel food coloring and 1-2 drops of green food coloring. Continue beating until the mixture sets and forms soft peaks, achieving a vibrant green color.
  2. Fill Crust: Spoon the prepared pudding evenly into the Oreo pie crust, smoothing the surface with a spatula for an even layer.
  3. Chill: Refrigerate the pie for 3 hours to allow the pudding to fully set and firm up.
  4. Add Toppings: Remove the pie from the refrigerator, spread the Cool Whip over the set pudding layer evenly to form a creamy topping.
  5. Decorate: Sprinkle green sanding sugar and mini red heart sprinkles over the Cool Whip layer. Just before serving, place individual large red heart sprinkles on each slice for a festive finishing touch.
  6. Serve: Cut the pie into slices and enjoy this fun and colorful no-bake Grinch-themed dessert.

Notes

  • Use cold milk to ensure the pudding sets properly and to achieve the best texture.
  • Gel food coloring provides a brighter, more vibrant green than liquid food coloring.
  • This pie must be refrigerated before serving to allow the pudding to firm up correctly.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute Cool Whip and milk with suitable plant-based alternatives.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator and consume within 2-3 days.
