Over the last several months I’ve shared some easy recipes that are not only great for adults, but awesome for kids to help cook too! I got all the ingredients and laid them out ready to go but then realized this was perfect for my favorite 8 year old chef. Â Drew was happy to help me make this No Bake Pie – using just five ingredients and one of our favorite candy bars.
The awesome thing about this recipe is that it’s just a simple base. Â You can use a different crust, a different flavor of pudding, whatever candy bar you’d like. Â So combine your favorites and put them together!
Nothing makes me happier than to see one of my kids in the kitchen. Â I absolutely love that they are learning basic kitchen and cooking skills. Â They will use those skills every day when they are older.
No Bake 5 Ingredient Candy Bar Pie
Ingredients
- 8 inch pre-made chocolate pie crust
- 6.8 oz instant pudding (2 small boxes)
- 1 ¼ c milk
- 8 oz whipping cream (Cool Whip)
- 3-6 favorite candy bars chopped (Snickers was used in this recipe)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix cold milk with instant pudding packs.
- Fold in ½ of the whipping cream.
- Add ¾ of chopped candy bars into mix.
- Spread into chocolate pie crust.
- Spread with remaining whipping cream.
- Top with grated chocolate bars and leftover chopped candy bars.
- Chill for several hours.
Notes
Nutrition
It took about three minutes until the pie was ready to go in the fridge. Â Not too bad! When you are done preparing the pie you can eat it right away, chill for a few hours if you want a more solid pie or even freeze it for the most solid option.

This pie is perfect. I love no bake recipes and they are even better when they contain only 5 ingredients!
