Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 frozen deep-dish pie crust (9 or 10-inch)
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup pretzels, coarsely crushed
- 1 cup graham crackers, coarsely crushed
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 3/4 cup pecan pieces
- 1 cup Kraft caramel bits
- 1/2 cup (8 tbsp.) butter, melted
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Place the oven rack on the second to the lowest spot in your oven. Heat butter in a large microwave-safe bowl until melted. Coarsely crush pretzels and graham crackers into pieces (not too small).
- Combine Filling: Combine all filling ingredients (chocolate chips, pretzels, graham crackers, coconut, pecans, caramel bits, butter, and sweetened condensed milk) in a large bowl until well blended.
- Assemble and Bake: Pour the entire filling into the frozen pie crust, and bake for 40-45 minutes or until the pie is set and the top is golden brown. (*Check the pie about 25 to 30 minutes in and if the top is getting too dark, cover it with a piece of foil.)
- Cool and Serve: Let the pie cool for 15 minutes before cutting and serving.
Notes
- Pie Crust: You can use a homemade pie crust if you prefer.
- Crushing: Don’t crush the pretzels and graham crackers too finely. You want some texture in the filling.
- Baking Time: Keep an eye on the pie while it’s baking. The baking time may vary depending on your oven.
- Cooling: Allowing the pie to cool will help it set and make it easier to slice.
- Serving Size: This pie is rich, so smaller slices are recommended.
