Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup(s) flour
1 cup(s) finely chopped pecans
1/2 cup(s) butter (one stick)
1 cup(s) powdered sugar
1 package(s) 8 ounce package cream cheese
2 cup(s) cool whip - one cup saved for top of pie
2 package(s) (four serving size) jello instant chocolate fudge pudding mix
3 cup(s) cold milk - half & half for half and 2% for the other half
- cool whip for top of pie.

Steps:

Melt butter and mix in flour and pecans. Press into a 9" pie plate. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes and let cool.
Combine powdered sugar, cream cheese and 1 cup Cool Whip and spread on COOLED crust. Using a wire whisk, mix the pudding and cold milk together and spread over the cream cheese layer. Top pudding mix with 1 cup Cool Whip. Refrigerate until chilled. This can be made the night before.
Note: Before covering the pie, insert toothpicks into pie to keep the plastic wrap off the whipped topping.
