Ingredients
2 cups crushed graham crackers

¼ cup granulated sugar
1 (3.4 oz) package instant pistachio pudding mix
1½ cups cold milk
1½ cups whipped cream (homemade or store-bought)
Additional whipped cream, for topping

Instructions
- 
In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
 - 
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Set aside.
 - 
In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant pistachio pudding mix and cold milk until smooth. Let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
 - 
Gently fold in the whipped cream until the filling is light and fluffy.
 - 
Pour the pistachio cream filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
 - 
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
 - 
Top with additional whipped cream and chopped pistachios before serving.

Slice and enjoy!

 - Layer sweetened cream cheese under the filling for a cheesecake-style twist.
 - Add lemon zest to the pudding mix for brightness.
 - Sprinkle toasted coconut over the topping for a tropical flavor.
 - Make in mini tart pans or jars for individual servings.
 - Use plant-based milk, vegan whipped topping, and vegan butter for a dairy-free version.
