Four Layer Pistachio Pudding Pie

October 13, 2014 by Dangerously-Delicious.com

This recipe was shared and loved by my grandmother years and years ago. It is still a sentimental favorite amongst my family now that she is gone. This recipe is simple to make, beautiful to serve and so delicious to eat. Make it as individual servings or slice it as a pie. 

4 Layer Pistachio Pudding Pie

This recipe holds an extra special place in my mom’s heart. Many years ago my grandmother made this dessert for her. My mom says she distinctly remembers the first time she tasted it. It immediately became a favorite. The light pistachio pudding, rich chocolate layer and creamy cream cheese filling sit on top of a buttery toasted layer of pecans. You’ll want to make sure you get all 4 layers on your spoon to get the full effect.


The colors compliment so many holidays like Christmas, Easter, St Patrick’s Day and Halloween. Serve it in individual cups or make it in a clear glass casserole dish (so you can see the layers) and just scoop out the servings. Either way works perfect.

4 Layer Pistachio Pudding Pie Be sure your crust is crumbly and not wet and sticky. Here is what it should look like before you bake it.

Dangerously Delicious

My name is Crystal Dangerfield and I am so excited to bring you tried and true recipes that my whole family and I enjoy together. I love being in the kitchen and trying new recipes. Of course we have our favorites, but my kids are pretty good sports about trying new things. I refuse to buy ready-made frozen meals and refrain from fast food. My kids do not know what a “happy meal” is and I want to keep it that way! My husband was diagnosed with Celiac’s Disease several years ago and I have had to learn how to alter recipes into gluten free versions that the whole family still loves.
