Notes
- You can use a store-bought graham cracker crust as a time-saving alternative.
- Ensure the vanilla ice cream is fully melted before mixing it into the pudding for a smooth filling.
- For best results, allow the pie to chill overnight if possible, to enhance flavor and texture.
- Substitute whipped topping with fresh whipped cream for a fresher taste.
- To make the chocolate curls, gently shave a chocolate bar using a vegetable peeler.
