2 ratings
When you think of mud pie, I’m sure a few things come to mind. Chocolate, whipped cream, crust, you get the idea. But what about a Mississippi mud pie? If you haven't heard of this southern-hailing dessert, you will now! This decadent pie starts with a chocolate crust, then gets a layer of brownie, a layer of rich chocolate pudding, a layer of fluffy vanilla whipped cream, then a beautiful dusting of shaved chocolate. Is your mouth watering yet?

Author's Notes

Any chocolate cookie will work, or even graham crackers. You just want 1 ½ to 2 cups of crushed cookie in total. In a hurry? your favorite store-bought chocolate pudding will work fine in this recipe.

Instead of chocolate shavings, a generous drizzle of chocolate syrup is also a great garnish for the top of the pie.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
step 2
Add Oreo® Chocolate Sandwich Cookies (20) to a blender or food processor and blitz until finely ground. Add the Butter (1/3 cup) and pulse to combine.
step 3
Press evenly into the base and sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 10-15 minutes until firm.
step 4
For the next layer, make the Brownie Mix (1/2 box) according to package directions. Ours needed Egg (1), Oil (1/4 cup), and Water (2 Tbsp). In a large mixing bowl, mix until smooth.
step 5
Pour mixture onto the crust. Bake for 10-15 minutes or as long as needed for a toothpick stuck into the center to come out clean. Let cool and place in the fridge to chill while you make the pudding.
step 6
To make the pudding, first set the Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (2/3 cup) and Butter (2 Tbsp) in a medium bowl.
step 7
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the Granulated Sugar (1/2 cup), Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (1/4 cup), and Corn Starch (1/4 cup). Add the Whole Milk (2 cups), little by little, while whisking to incorporate it fully. Whisk in the Farmhouse Eggs® Large Brown Eggs (4). Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until it has thickened and reaches a low boil.
step 8
Whisk the pudding for another minute, then immediately pour it over the butter and chocolate. Let stand for 1 minute, then whisk until butter and chocolate are melted and fully combined.
step 9
Pour over the cooled brownie. Cover with plastic wrap, making sure to press it gently into the surface of the pudding. Chill until the pudding has set, at least 3 hours (overnight is best).
step 10
Whip the Heavy Cream (1 cup) in a cold bowl with Powdered Confectioners Sugar (2 Tbsp) and Vanilla Extract (1/2 tsp) until soft peaks form, then whip a tiny bit more to add structure.
step 11
Once the pudding is set, add whipped cream (leave a 1-inch border). Shave Chocolate (to taste) over the top and serve.
