Hi Barb! Hope this isn't too late...This is a delicious Mocha Fudge Pie from Cooking Light's September 1994 edition. I have made it several times since then and always get rave reviews...It's really easy to prepare as well since it uses some "ready made" products...
Mocha Fudge Pie
1/3 cup hot water 4 teaspoons instant coffee granules, divided 1/2 (19.85 oz.) box light fudge brownie mix (about 2 cups) 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided 2 egg whites Vegetable cooking spray 3/4 cup 1% low-fat milk 3 tablespoons Kahlua or other coffee flavored liqueur, divided 1 (3.9 oz) package chocolate-flavored instant pudding-and-pie filling mix 3 cups frozen reduced-calorie whipped topping, thawed and divided Chocolate curls (optional)(This is a neat touch though!!)
Combine hot water and 2 teaspoons coffee granules in medium bowl; stir well. Add brownie mix, 1 teaspoon vanilla, and egg whites; stir until well blended. Pour mixture into a 9-inch pieplate coated with cooking spray. Bake at 325 degrees F for 22 minutes. Let crust cool completely. Combine milk, 2 tablespoons Kahlua, 1 teaspoon coffee granules in a bowl; stir well. Gently fold in remaining 1 1/2 cups whipped topping. Spread whipped topping mixture evenly over pudding mixture. Garnish with chocolate curls, if desired.
Nonalcoholic version: When making the pudding mixture, substitute 2 tablespoons 1% low-fat milk for the Kahlua. In the topping, omit the Kahlua, and dissolve the coffee granules in 1 tablespoon water.
