### Ingredients You’ll Need:
– **Graham cracker crust (1 store-bought or homemade)** – for a simple, buttery base
– **Butterscotch instant pudding mix (1 package, 3.4 oz)** – the star of the show, giving the pie its rich flavor
– **Whole milk (2 cups)** – for the creamy filling
– **Cream cheese (8 oz, softened)** – for added smoothness and a slight tang to balance the sweetness
– **Powdered sugar (1/2 cup)** – to sweeten the filling without making it gritty
– **Whipped topping (1 tub, about 8 oz)** – for that fluffy, light texture
– **Butterscotch chips (optional, for garnish)** – for a touch of extra butterscotch flavor and decoration
– **Caramel sauce (optional, for drizzling)** – adds a beautiful finish and extra sweetness
### How to Make It:
#### Step 1: Prepare the Filling
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, start by preparing the butterscotch pudding mix. Add the instant pudding mix and milk, and whisk them together for about 2 minutes until the pudding thickens. Once thickened, set it aside.
In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. You can use a hand mixer or a stand mixer for this part. Add the prepared butterscotch pudding to the cream cheese mixture and blend until smooth.
#### Step 2: Fold in Whipped Topping
Gently fold in the whipped topping to the pudding-cream cheese mixture. Use a spatula and fold it carefully, trying to maintain the light, airy texture of the whipped topping. This step ensures the pie will be smooth, creamy, and perfectly light.
#### Step 3: Assemble the Pie
Spread the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust. Smooth the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon to create an even surface. You can use a store-bought graham cracker crust or make your own by mixing crushed graham crackers with melted butter and pressing it into a pie dish.
Step 4: Chill and Set
Once the pie is assembled, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight. This chilling step allows the pie to set and makes it easier to slice when it’s time to serve.
