Easy Steps to Pie Perfection:

1/ In a large mixing bowl, use a hand-held mixer to beat the vanilla instant pudding mix with the cold eggnog for about 2 minutes. You’ll notice the pudding mixture will start to thicken slightly.

2/ Next, gently fold in 1 cup of the thawed whipped topping until it’s just combined with the pudding mixture.

3/ Carefully spoon this creamy filling into your graham cracker pie crust.

4/ The key step: let your pie chill in the refrigerator for at least four hours. This chilling time is essential for achieving that perfectly set, rich texture.

Serving Suggestions:

When you’re ready to serve, add a dollop of whipped topping to each slice and a light sprinkle of nutmeg for an extra festive touch.

Tips for the Perfect Eggnog Pie:

Full-Fat Eggnog is Key: Ensure you use full-fat eggnog to get the right creamy consistency and rich texture.

Adult Version: Feel free to spike your pie! Adding brandy or another type of alcohol can transform this into a delightful adult dessert.

Pie Crust Variations: While a graham cracker crust is recommended for ease, a pastry pie crust can also be used. Just remember to blind-bake and cool it before adding your filling.
