Ingredients
Scale
Pie Base
- 1 graham cracker crust
Pie Filling
- 1 vanilla instant pudding mix (153g box)
- 1 1/2 cups eggnog
- 2 cups cool whip or whipped cream
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Prepare pudding mixture: In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of eggnog and the vanilla instant pudding mix. Use a hand mixer to beat the ingredients together until they are fully combined and the mixture has a smooth texture.
- Add whipped cream and nutmeg: Gently fold 2 cups of cool whip or whipped cream and 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg into the pudding mixture, making sure to incorporate them evenly without deflating the whipped cream.
- Fill the crust: Pour the combined mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust. Use a spatula to spread the filling evenly across the crust surface for a smooth finish.
- Garnish and chill: Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg over the top of the pie for garnish. Place the pie in the refrigerator and chill for at least 5 hours or preferably overnight until the filling is firm.
- Serve: Once chilled and set, slice and serve the pie cold for a refreshing and festive holiday dessert experience.
Notes
- For best results, chill the pie overnight to allow the filling to fully set.

- Use fresh nutmeg if possible for a more vibrant flavor.
- This pie contains dairy and eggs, so it is not suitable for vegan diets.
- The pie crust can be made from scratch or store-bought for convenience.
