Hershey Chocolate Bars And Marshmallows Are The Start To The Easiest Crowd-Pleasing Pie

If you want a ridiculously simple pie that tastes high-end, look no further than this no-bake chocolate pie. With crowd-pleasing flavors like Hershey's chocolate, Oreo cookies, and marshmallows, you will want to commit this recipe to memory. This potluck-worthy pie will impress your guests without adding stress to your schedule, since you need just a handful of ingredients and 15 minutes to make it.

The chocolate flavor is unbeatable, and the texture is cool and creamy, with a lovely crumb crunch from the pie crust. Once prepared, the chocolate and marshmallow pie will set in the fridge for three or more hours. It's the ideal pie when you're having company over but still need to prep dinner, clean the house, and finish other hosting duties.

To make this chocolate and marshmallow pie, use a store-bought pie shell, such as an Oreo cookie pie crust, or make your own at home (this is an easy graham cracker pie crust).The only other ingredients you need are marshmallows, chopped Hershey's bars, Cool Whip, and milk. Start by melting marshmallows in the microwave or on the stove. Mix in the chopped Hershey's bars, then stir in Cool Whip or a similar whipped cream.

Pour the mixture into a prepared pie shell, then top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. Refrigerate for at least three hours to set. The result is a pie with a firm, chocolate mousse-like texture, a crispy crust, and a light, fluffy whipped cream topping.

The beauty of this make-ahead pie is that you can adjust the ingredients to suit your tastes or what you have on hand. If you don't have Hershey's chocolate bars, you can melt other chocolate candies, such as Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (for a delicious boost of peanut butter flavor) or Mounds (for a coconut flavor upgrade). If you don't have candy bars on hand, you can also melt chocolate chips with butter and heavy cream for rich, chocolaty flavor.

For a crunchy topping, you can crush Oreo cookies or graham crackers and sprinkle them over your whipped cream layer. Or, if you like nuts, you can top your pie with crushed peanuts for added saltiness and texture.
