S'Mores Pie

A delicious chocolatey pie that will disappear faster than you can say "S'more, please!"

If I'm going to make dessert it has to be really easy and really delicious. This take on the iconic s'more in the form of a pie fits the bill. Easy to make, creamy and delicious. It has a graham/nutella crust, chocolate pudding filling and a homemade toasted marshmallow fluff topping. In our house it disappeared just as soon as it hit the table. You've got to try this one out!
