Description

Indulge in the decadent flavors of this No-Bake German Chocolate Pie. A luscious blend of chocolate, coconut, pecans, and caramel nestled in a cookie crust, this dessert is a delightful treat for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale

Pie Crust:

  • 1 (6 oz) ready-made chocolate cookie or graham cracker pie crust

Chocolate Filling:

  • 1 (4 oz) bar German sweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (8 oz) container whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/2 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce (plus extra for drizzling)
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chopped German chocolate and milk. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth and melted.
  2. Prepare Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Add the melted chocolate mixture and beat again until fully combined. Gently fold in the whipped topping until smooth and fluffy.
  3. Finish Filling: Stir in coconut, chopped pecans, caramel sauce, and a pinch of salt. Spoon the filling into the prepared pie crust and smooth the top.
  4. Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
  5. Serve: Before serving, drizzle with additional caramel sauce and garnish with extra coconut and pecans if desired.

Notes

  • For a more intense chocolate flavor, use a chocolate cookie crust.
  • This pie can be made a day ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator.
  • Toasting the coconut and pecans adds even more depth to the flavor.
