    Source of Recipe


    "The Healthy Exchanges Cookbook, page 211" JoAnna Lund

    List of Ingredients




    1 package sugar-free instant vanilla pudding mix -- (4 serving size)
    2/3 cup Carnation nonfat dry milk powder
    1 1/4 cups water
    1/2 teaspoon mint extract
    2 drops green food coloring -- (2-3)
    1 cup Cool Whip Lite
    2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
    1 (6 oz) Keebler Chocolate-flavored pie crust

    Recipe



    Ê
    In a medium bowl, combine dry pudding mix, dry milk powder, and water. Mix well, using a wire whisk. Fold in mint extract, green food coloring, and Cool Whip Lite. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour mixture into piecrust. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Freezes well.

    Maggie's Note: I have trouble with clumping in my pies. I have solved that problem by using lukewarm water and dissolving the dry milk powder in the water. Then I let it sit a few minutes while I measure out other ingredients to get them ready to put in the recipe. Then I mix the wet mixture in with the pudding.

    Yield: "8 slices"
