Bake this Chocolate Mousse Pie Now!
To get started, prepare the following ingredients:
1 9-inch prepackaged pie crust
1 1/4-ounce package of sugar-free, fat-free chocolate pudding mix
1 2/3 cups fat-free milk
1 8-ounce container of fat-free whipped topping, divided
2 tablespoons mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
*Make sure you have an oven to use for this.
You can start by pre-heating the oven up to 400 degrees. To bake the pie crust, simply read the directions listed on its package. As soon as this process is done, remove the pie from the oven, and let it cool completely.
While waiting for the pie to cool down, you can proceed to whisking some pudding mix and milk. Use a medium-sized bowl for this. Now start folding half (4 ounces) of whipped topping into the pudding mixture. Fold until it is fully blended with the ingredients. When you’ve finished this step, start by spreading the pudding mixture into the pie’s top and crust part. Also use some of that whipped topping as well. Finish setting-up the pie by sprinkling the top with chocolate chips. This can make 8 servings (194 calories/slice).
So remember, deprivation can always backfire. Don’t get too restrictive on yourself as this may lead you to do some binge-eating, out of frustration. Educate yourself by knowing which ingredients to use for a potential treat. You can always find ways to satisfy that sweet tooth of yours. It’s just about finding a sense of balance in your diet. Enjoy your pie!
