Before I turned healthier and swore off candy, I LOVED Almond Joy and Mounds. Here's my compromise
Ingredients:
1 pie crust (try 1-1/2 ingredient fiber crust with 2-3 tbsp cocoa powder) (optional)
1 box fat-free sugar-free instant chocolate pudding mix
2 cups nonfat milk or 2 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons lemon juice or 2 tablespoons vinegar (omit if using buttermilk)
1 teaspoon coconut extract
1 teaspoon almond extract (if you feel like a nut) (optional)
1 envelope knox gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
1 (8 ounce) container fat-free cool whip
Directions:
1. Prepare small box instant pudding, using buttermilk instead of milk.
2. Mix in extract (s); set aside.
3. Prepare 1 envelope Knox gelatin with 1/4 cup cold water.
4. Use glass measuring cup to mix gelatin.
5. Set mixture in a pot or pan of hot water, while still in the cup, to help dissolve gelatin.
6. Gelatin is dissolved when mixture is clear.
7. Wire whisk gelatin into pudding and fold in the 8-oz cool whip.
8. Pour into prepared crust; chill.
