Recipe: Instant Pumpkin Pie (using pudding mix, no bake, make ahead)

Desserts - Pies and Tarts
INSTANT PUMPKIN PIE

"This is light, nice and fluffy (3- or 4-inches high), easy to make, and delicious. Has been a "requested" item at our holiday gatherings for over ten years. Enjoy!" - Wynona

2 pkg. (3 3/4 oz. each) vanilla flavored instant pudding/pie filling
1 1/2 cups milk
1 (16 oz.) can pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
1 1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
4 cups (one 9-oz. container) Cool Whip non-dairy topping, divided use
1 baked (9-inch) pie shell or graham cracker crust, cooled
Pecan halves (or chopped work just as well...maybe not as pretty), for garnish

In large bowl, add pudding mix to milk. Mix slowly with rotary beater or lowest speed of electric mixer (I actually use a wire whisk) until just blended - about 30 seconds.

Blend in pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice and 2 cups of the whipped topping. Pour into pie shell. Chill at least 4 hours.

Garnish with pecans and remaining whipped topping.

Pudding and Pie... Yum!
"I wanted to take my passion for pumpkin and turn it into something special, so I made a pudding that mimicked pumpkin pie in all of the best ways-the warm spices, the earthy pumpkin, the perfect sweetness - but spooned it into glasses instead of a crust.
