No-Bake Chocolate Fudge Pie

When John starts peeping into the display cases at the bakery of the grocery store, I know he is looking for something chocolate, and this is the pie that I whip up for him. I keep multiple packets of those large Hershey bars just for this pie.

10.85 oz. Milk or Dark chocolate candy bars, broken into pieces
20 large marshmallows
1/2 cup milk
2 cups whipped topping or whipped cream
1 9-inch graham cracker crust or make your own
Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 Tbsp. sugar
5 oz. butter, melted
1. Mix graham cracker crumbs with the sugar in a small bowl.
2. Pour melted butter into crumb mixture and mix well.
3. Put into a 9-inch round pie plate and flatten the mixture with the bottom of a measuring cup. With your fingers work the crumbs up the sides and press firmly.
4. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 8 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely.
Pie:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the milk, candy bar pieces and marshmallows. Cook and stir over low heat until smooth and there are no streaks of white marshmallow.
2. Remove from heat and cool completely. Might take an hour or two.
3. Fold in whipped topping gently until well combined. Pour into crust.
4. Cover and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight. Garnish with additional whipped topping or cream.
