No Bake Turtle Pie

This no bake turtle pie is a combination of so many delicious things in one pie! It has a homemade graham cracker crust, thick pecan salted caramel, creamy chocolate pie and a fluffy whipped cream. This pie also has a ton of drizzled chocolate and caramel, which makes this the ultimate turtle pie.

The Fluffiest Whip Cream

What makes this no bake turtle pie stand out, is the whipped cream topping!

Now, normally I am all about doing everything homemade because I love to know what exactly goes into my desserts. However, Truwhip completely changes the game.

Truwhip is a whipped cream topping made with no artificial colors, no high fructose corn syrup, no trans fats, and no hydrogenated oils. The whipped cream is made with only real ingredients.

This whipped cream topping makes the perfect topping to this pie! You can get it at Whole Foods.

Trust me, you will be impressed! No one will even know you got it at the store.

Baked Graham Cracker Crust

While I say that this pie is no bake, the crust does get baked for 10 minutes. Baking the crust will reduce the crumble and make it easy to cut into.

To make this crust, start by blending the graham crackers into crumbs. I use a food processor to blend them into very fine crumbs.

Next, mix the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and melted butter together with a fork. A fork helps to blend everything together easier. The crumbs should resemble wet sand.

Pour the crumbs into a 9 inch pie plate. (make sure it is sprayed with a baking non-stick first!) Then, compact the crust down on the bottom and up the sides of the pie pan. I like to use a measuring cup to compact the crust.

After it is compacted, bake for 10 minutes.

The Best Salted Caramel

I use this salted caramel recipe for every dessert that needs caramel. It is super easy to make and it tastes so good! Here are the steps to make it:

• Step 1: Room temperature ingredients- Pull out the butter and heavy cream 2 hours before making the caramel.
• Step 2: Melt sugar- Melt the sugar completely. Use a whisk and stir the sugar. It will clump up a lot at first.
• Step 3: Brown sugar- Once the sugar is completely melted, let it sit for less than 30 seconds. It should quickly turn an amber color. Then, immediately take it off of the heat.
• Step 4: Add in butter and cream- Add half of the butter and then whisk it into the sugar. It will dramatically bubble. Then add in the rest of the butter. Repeat with the heavy cream.
• Step 5: Add in vanilla and salt- Add the vanilla and salt and whisk together. Pour the hot caramel into a glass container.
• Step 6: Cool completely- The caramel needs to cool completely before adding it to the pie.

Once you try it, you won't buy store caramel ever again!

To cool the caramel faster, you can place it in the freezer for 20-30 minutes to cool down quickly. Make sure to stir every 10 minutes. For more tips and tricks, check out my Homemade Salted Caramel recipe.

Pecan Salted Caramel

For the inside of the pie it needs to be a thick salted caramel so it doesn't run everywhere.

To thicken the salted caramel, whisk in the flour. Also, add in the chopped pecans. This will create a thicker caramel. Getting it cold when you chill the pie later will also help.

Pour the pecan salted caramel in the pie.

Then, while you make the chocolate pie, freeze the rest of the pie. A colder caramel will cause it to be less likely to spread.

How To Make Chocolate Pie

This chocolate pie filling is the creamiest pie! It is easily made with cream cheese and whipped cream! It is probably the best no bake chocolate pie I have ever had!

• Freeze metal bowl- Freeze the metal bowl and whisk attachment for 10 minutes while you make the other part of the pie.
• Beat cream cheese- Beat the cream cheese in a separate bowl on high for 1 straight minute. It should be fluffy and smooth.
• Add in powdered sugar- Add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder to the cream cheese. It should be sifted first to prevent any grittiness.
• Make whipped cream- Make the whipped cream in the cold bowl. Beat until medium peaks form.
• Fold in whipped cream- Use a rubber spatula to fold the whipped cream into the chocolate. It will take several minutes to get it completely combined.

In the end, it should be a very creamy chocolate pie filling. Spread the chocolate pie filling on top of the caramel.

Chilling The Pie

The pie has to be chilled for at least 6 hours but I prefer overnight. A very cold pie will hold up so much better!

Otherwise it will be too floppy when you cut into the pie.

Since this is a no bake pie, it has to stay in the fridge until ready to serve. Otherwise it will melt.

Decorating The Pie

Once the pie is chilled, top it with a chocolate ganache drizzle and salted caramel drizzle. This pie will have 2 layers of drizzles.

If the salted caramel is too thick and cooled down to drizzle, heat it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds.

Once the pie is drizzled, add the chipped pecans.

Next, top the pie with the Truwhip whipped topping. I ended up using ¾ of the container. Then, use the back of the spoon to create a swirled textured look.

Once the whipped topping is on, drizzle more chocolate, caramel, and pecans on top.

How To Get The Perfect Slice

To get the perfect slice of no bake turtle pie, use a sharp warm knife to cut into the pie. Then, wash the knife in warm water between each slice.

This will give you the perfect slice like you see below.

How To Store The Pie

Since this no bake turtle pie has to be chilled, it needs to be covered and will last up to 5 days in the fridge. For any leftovers, you can store the slices in an airtight container.
