Notes

PRO TIP: Whether you are using store-bought or your own crust, make sure it is baked first.
PRO TIP: If you are using a store-bought pie crust and it is in a foil pie plate, we'd recommend placing that inside a glass pie dish for added stability.
PRO TIP: Freezing this chocolate pudding pie helps it set more quickly and slice cleanly.
