❤️ Why you'll love it

  • Hershey’s chocolate pie comes together in 5 minutes and couldn't be easier to make!
  • You only need 5 ingredients!
  • You can prepare it ahead of time.

I love a good pie recipe but don't always have the time to whip one up from scratch. Plus, when it's hot, I'd rather not warm up the house even more by turning on the oven.

Luckily, I don't have to with this no bake Hershey pie recipe!

It's loaded with chocolate flavor and ooey-gooey marshmallows for an irresistible dessert that tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen. However, in reality, it takes no time at all!

🧾 Ingredients

This is an overview of the ingredients. You'll find the full measurements and instructions in the green recipe card (printable) at the bottom of the page.

Labeled ingredients for Hershey Pie.

🔪 Instructions

This is an overview of the instructions. Full instructions are in the green recipe card at the bottom of the page.

Step by step images showng how to make this pie.
  1. Add the milk and marshmallows to a saucepan, and melt.
  2. Stir the chocolate into the melted marshmallows mixture, and let cool.
  3. Gently fold in the cool whip.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the crust, and chill.

🥫 Storage

Leftover pie? Promptly cover your no bake chocolate pie with plastic wrap, and place it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

If you want to make it ahead of time, this pie will freeze beautifully.

However, I recommend leaving the Cool Whip topping off until you're ready to serve. Once made, wrap the pie in a double layer of plastic wrap and foil, and store it for up to 2 months.

📖 Variations

  • Add a sprinkle of espresso powder.
  • Use a homemade crust.
  • Before serving, add more Oreo cookie crumbs on top.
  • Chocolate shavings are pretty on top, too.
  • Switch up the chocolate, and use dark chocolate instead!

💭 Things to know

Expert Tip: Don't use chocolate chips! They contain stabilizers that prevent them from melting which could result in a lumpy pie. You need classic Hershey bars.

  • Fold in half the whipped topping and then once it's well mixed fold in the other half. This will keep the whipped topping from deflating.
  • For easy slicing, run your knife under hot water for about 30 seconds, and be sure to wipe it off after each slice.
  • A chocolate cookie crust makes this a chocolate lover's dream but you can use a graham crackers crust if you prefer.
  • Don't fret if the crust crumbles a bit when serving. No bake pies are known to be messy. It's part of their charm!

👩‍🍳 FAQs

Can I use chocolate pudding instead of candy bars?

No. The texture will be completely different. Hershey's milk chocolate bars give the pie the right texture and flavor.

Do I have to use Hershey's chocolate?

Technically, no. Just make sure you use a high-quality brand like Godiva, Ghiradelli, etc.

Can I make my own pie crust?

Sure! If you've got the time, feel free to make your own Oreo cookie crust.
