Crust
- 1 prepared 9-inch chocolate pie crust (6-ounce), store-bought or homemade (try our homemade Oreo Pie Crust recipe)
Filling
- 6 ounces block-style cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 25 ounces frozen whipped topping, thawed and divided (such as Cool Whip)
- 4.65 ounces Hershey’s milk chocolate bars, broken into pieces plus additional bar for optional garnish if desired
- Prepare the crust: If not using a pre-made crust, prepare and bake your chocolate pie crust according to your chosen recipe and allow it to cool completely before filling.
- Make the cream cheese mixture: In a medium bowl, beat the room temperature cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sifted powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Add the whipped topping: Fold in about half of the thawed whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture gently, keeping the texture light and airy.
- Add chocolate pieces: Fold in the broken Hershey’s milk chocolate bar pieces into the mixture evenly, dispersing chocolate throughout the filling.
- Combine remaining whipped topping: Gently fold in the remaining whipped topping to the mixture to create a fluffy, creamy filling.
- Assemble the pie: Spoon the filling into the prepared chocolate pie crust, smoothing the top evenly with a spatula.
- Chill: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to set and flavors to meld.
- Garnish and serve: Before serving, optionally garnish the top of the pie with additional shaved Hershey’s chocolate or chocolate bar pieces. Slice and enjoy chilled.
Notes
- Make sure cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps in the filling.
- Chilling time is important to let the pie set properly.
- You can substitute the chocolate pie crust with a homemade Oreo crust for added flavor.
- For easier folding, divide the whipped topping carefully so the mixture remains light and fluffy.
- Store pie refrigerated and consume within 3-4 days for best freshness.
