Crust
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
Topping
- 1/2 container Cool Whip
- 1/2 cup green sanding sugar
- 1/2 cup mini red heart sprinkles
- 1/2 cup large red heart sprinkles
- Prepare the pudding: In a mixing bowl, combine the white chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of cold 2% milk. Add 2-3 drops of neon green gel food coloring and 1-2 drops of green food coloring. Beat the mixture until it thickens and forms soft peaks, indicating it has fully set.
- Fill the crust: Pour the prepared green pudding evenly into the Oreo pie crust. Spread it smoothly with a spatula or the back of a spoon to create a level surface.
- Chill the pie: Place the pie in the refrigerator and chill for about 3 hours. This allows the pudding filling to firm up completely for the best texture.
- Add whipped topping: Remove the chilled pie from the refrigerator and spread the half container of Cool Whip evenly over the pudding layer, covering the top completely.
- Decorate with sprinkles: Sprinkle the green sanding sugar and mini red heart sprinkles generously across the whipped topping to create a festive appearance.
- Finish with large hearts: Just before serving, place a single large red heart sprinkle on each slice for a charming garnish.
- Serve and enjoy: Slice the pie and serve immediately to enjoy the creamy, colorful, and delicious dessert.
Notes
- Make sure the milk used is cold to help the pudding set properly.
- Adjust the amount of green food coloring to get your desired vibrant color.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours; longer chilling will yield a firmer pie.
- Use a sharp knife warmed in hot water to get cleaner slices.
- This pie is best served chilled and consumed within 2 days for freshness.
