Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 Oreo pie crust

Pudding Filling

  • 1 box white chocolate pudding (3.9 oz)
  • 2 cups cold 2% milk
  • 23 drops neon green gel food coloring
  • 12 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

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pudding: In a mixing bowl, combine the white chocolate pudding mix with the cold 2% milk and both types of green food coloring (neon gel and regular). Beat the mixture according to the package directions until it thickens and forms soft peaks with a fluffy consistency.
  2. Fill the crust: Spoon the prepared green pudding mixture evenly into the Oreo pie crust, spreading it smoothly to cover the entire base evenly.
  3. Chill: Place the filled pie into the refrigerator and chill for 3 hours to allow the pudding to fully set and firm up before continuing.
  4. Add whipped topping: Remove the pie from the refrigerator and spread the Cool-Whip evenly on top of the set pudding layer for a smooth, creamy finish.
  5. Decorate with sprinkles: Sprinkle the green sanding sugar and mini red heart sprinkles generously over the whipped topping to create a festive look.
  6. Add final garnish: Just before serving, cut the pie into slices and place one large red heart sprinkle on top of each slice as a charming finishing touch.
  7. Serve and enjoy: Serve chilled and delight in this whimsical, no-bake Grinch-themed dessert that’s as fun to eat as it is to look at.

Notes

  • Ensure the milk used is cold to help the pudding set properly and achieve the best texture.
  • Gel food coloring is preferred to get a vibrant green color without thinning the pudding mixture.
  • Chilling time is essential; do not rush as the pudding needs time to properly set and thicken in the crust.
  • The pie crust is pre-made Oreo crust, making this recipe very convenient and quick to assemble.
  • Customize the sprinkles to fit your holiday or party theme as desired.
  • For a thicker pudding consistency, you can reduce the milk slightly but follow the original package instructions for best results.
