I read the review of the original poster of this recipe and attempted to make it with chocolate mousse. I took the advice of other people and followed the package directions of the mousse. Then I used Lite Whipping Topping no-name brand. Basically, in the refrigerator, the whipped topping melted and I needed to put the whole thing in the freezer. It tasted more like an ice cream pie by the end of it. Fortunately, my family did like it and we're all fans of mint. It wasn't very appetizing looking through with all of the melting, so I won't likely make it again. My tip? Freeze instead of refrigerate. (Also, I feel bad that the original poster's recipe wasn't used at ToH's discretion).

My husband loves this pie! As a matter of fact, he requested this for his birthday instead of cake! I used Chocolate Fudge to give it a richer, dark color. This is very rich, so it will serve 8 people easily.

This pie was very rich and creamy and a big hit with the family. Next time, though, I would use fewer candies. The mint flavor was pretty overwhelming masking the chocolate.

This is delicious! (Especially those who love chocolate mint!). I used one 3.2 oz instant chocolate mousse pudding (Jello brand) with the same amount of milk the recipe calls for. The consistency and amount of pudding was perfect!

JBOhio The recipe calls for a 3.9 oz pkg of instant pudding (that is 3 small pkgs) and 1 1/2 c milk. All I got was a thick glob of chocolate. Should I have used 1 1/2 cups of milk for each package of pudding? Jello brand pudding (at least used to) come in a 3.9 oz box, which was the standard size box. A quick look through my pantry and I found Royal brand at 1.7oz and a different Jello brand flavor at 2.2 oz. Unfortunately I think as companies downsize their packaging we'll be encountering this more often. This recipe calls for one pies worth of pudding, the directions on the box used to say for thicker pudding use 1½ cups of milk. I would look at the box of pudding you buy and follow the directions for pie filling - if you need two boxes to get a good filling - use two, just follow the box directions for the pudding part (does that make sense?), then just add in the whipped topping and candies as directed in the recipe.

The recipe calls for a 3.9 ounce package of instant pudding mix, with 1 1/2 cups of milk. Doing it this way results in a thick glob. Looking for another recipe.

I am Melissa who submitted this pie recipe and when I did I use instant chocolate mousse but they said most people dont have that, but now I know its out there... So try it with the Mousse it will help with the runny filling
