Ingredients

• 1 pre-made crust Low-fat graham cracker crust
• 2 cups Low-fat milk
• 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.33 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Lite whipped topping
• 2 tablespoons Dark chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the low-fat milk, cornstarch, cocoa powder, and granulated sugar until well combined and no lumps remain.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken and bubble, about 8-10 minutes.

Step 3

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and vanilla extract. Continue stirring until the chocolate chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 4

Pour the chocolate filling into the prepared low-fat graham cracker crust, spreading it out to create an even layer. Let cool at room temperature for 10 minutes.

Step 5

Cover the pie with plastic wrap, ensuring the wrap touches the surface of the filling to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully set.

Step 6

Before serving, spread the lite whipped topping evenly over the chilled pie. Optionally, sprinkle with dark chocolate shavings for garnish.

Step 7

Slice into 8 equal portions and serve immediately. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
