Simple, but elegant dessert. You can make your own chocolate cookie crust or just buy one at the store & carefully put it in your own pie plate, if you want. We won't tell. To make this into an ice cream pie, replace the cooked pudding (using the milk) with softened chocolate ice cream, then garnish & freeze until almost ready to serve. =^..^=
