I made this for a friend's Thanksgiving gathering. It didn't seem like it ever got very firm, but it was a huge hit with everyone who tried it. I also used the chocolate pudding mixed into my whipped topping. My family likes the dark chocolate layer, so we made a pie with just that layer and it was wonderful. I would definitely recommend you use a deep dish pie crust if you make all three layers! The one layer pie fit perfectly into a regular pie crust. Also, substitute a chocolate cookie crumb crust and it's much better. I used chocolate animal crackers, butter, and sugar for mine.

I used regular cool whip and mixed in chocolate instant pudding mix. It turned out to be a very nice recipe that I am going to use again!

This recipe was quite good -- very rich. However, it seemed like trying to fit a gallon of milk into a shot glass. One pie crust is in no way big enough for all of what is supposed to go into it. I had to omit one tub of whipped cream and still ended up having extra from each chocolate portion (which was fine when poured into dessert glasses and layered!)

My husband said he would be excited to have this again. I actually wasn't crazy about it until we froze it...then it was fantastic. For new bakers, a make-shift double boiler is easily concocted by placing a just smaller pot or bowl inside a little larger pot of water. I think an Oreo crust might be even better. Oh, and I just used regular Cool Whip twice instead of chocolate, no problem. Don't be intimidated by all of the ingredients, it's not hard...okay maybe a little time consuming, but worth it. Thanks for sharing!

Pretty easy to make--my local grocery store didn't have chocolate whipped topping so I added a little cocoa powder to plain whipped topping instead. My family loved it and I'm sure I'll be making it again! Thanks for sharing!
