Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1½ cups finely crushed graham crackers
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp melted unsalted butter
  • 2 boxes (3.4 oz each) instant butterscotch pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping
  • optional garnishes: chopped nuts, crushed toffee, caramel drizzle

Equipment

  • pie pan or tart pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk or electric mixer
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, mix crushed graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter until evenly moistened. Press firmly into the bottom and sides of your pie pan. Chill for 10 minutes or bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8–10 minutes for a crisp texture. Let cool.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together pudding mix and cold milk for 2–3 minutes until it thickens. Add vanilla extract if using. Let rest briefly, then pour into the prepared crust.
  3. Once the pudding layer has set slightly, spread whipped topping evenly across the surface. Use a spatula to create soft peaks or decorative swirls.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set. The longer it chills, the better it slices and tastes.
  5. Before serving, add optional toppings like crushed toffee, nuts, or caramel drizzle. Slice and enjoy your creamy butterscotch pie delight!

Notes

For a firmer crust, bake before chilling. Add sea salt flakes for a salted-butterscotch twist. Swap butterscotch for caramel or banana pudding for new flavor variations.
