Description

This No-Bake German Chocolate Pie combines the rich flavors of chocolate and coconut with a creamy, no-bake filling to create an indulgent dessert that’s both easy to prepare and irresistibly delicious. Perfect for anyone craving a quick yet decadent treat without the hassle of turning on the oven.


Ingredients

1 graham cracker crust

1 cup sweetened condensed milk

4 oz. semi-sweet chocolate, chopped

8 oz. cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup whipped topping

1/2 cup shredded coconut, toasted

1/2 cup chopped pecans, toasted


Instructions

  1. In a saucepan over low heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk and chopped semi-sweet chocolate. Stir constantly until the chocolate has completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Set aside to cool.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract and continue to mix until fully combined.
  3. Fold the cooled chocolate mixture into the cream cheese mixture, blending until smooth.
  4. Gently fold in the whipped topping, making sure it’s fully incorporated.
  5. Add the toasted coconut and pecans, and stir gently to combine.
  6. Pour the mixture into the graham cracker crust and spread evenly.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the pie to set properly.
  8. Garnish with additional toasted coconut and pecans if desired before serving.

Notes

  1. Gluten-Free: Use a gluten-free graham cracker crust to make this pie suitable for those with gluten sensitivities.
  2. Chocolate Lovers: For an extra chocolatey experience, add a layer of chocolate ganache on top before refrigerating the pie.
  3. Nut-Free: Omit the pecans if you prefer a nut-free version, or swap them for other nuts like almonds or cashews.
  4. Coconut-Free: If you’re not a fan of coconut, you can leave it out or replace it with a layer of caramel for a different flavor profile.
  5. Vegan: Substitute the cream cheese with a plant-based alternative and use a non-dairy whipped topping to make it vegan-friendly.
