This easy no bake Eggnog Pie has won a permanent place on our Thanksgiving and Christmas dessert menus. It’s light, fluffy and a family favorite!

You know, one of the best things about the holiday season has got to be eggnog! I remember drinking it from my special Santa mug when I was a kid, which seemed to make it taste even better.
Now, my kids go crazy for this stuff, and one of their favorite ways to enjoy it is by indulging in a tasty slice of eggnog pie. It’s cool, creamy, and you only need 5 ingredients to make it!
- Eggnog
- Pie crust — graham cracker or frozen pie crust
- Jello Instant Pudding Mix
- Cool Whip or non dairy topping
- Nutmeg
I started serving this no bake pie for dessert at Thanksgiving and Christmas a few years ago, and my oldest daughter has now made it her specialty.

We love this holiday pie so much that my daughter always makes two at one time. This way, we can enjoy some for dessert on the actual holiday and have more the next day.
My daughter likes to add a little bit more whipped topping as a garnish and some additional nutmeg over the filling — yum!

The pie is light and fluffy, so it’s the perfect ending to a heavy meal, and no one can say they don’t have room for dessert! It also goes great with a cup of coffee, Instant Pot Hot Chocolate or eggnog — double yum!

Pretty but where’s the eggnog? Was so looking forward to this recipe. Just did not taste the eggnog; was a mouth of whipped topping. Will try again possibly doubling the eggnog.
I’ve never not tasted the eggnog. Maybe it was the brand?
The pie is good but next time I rather eat it as just a pudding no pie crust.
Hi! Do you see any reason I couldn’t use lactose free egg nog? It shouldn’t change anything about the pie? May be a stupid question but have to ask.
Thanks!
I haven’t tried it, but if the thickness is about the same, it should work.
Threw this in the freezer for a few minutes to chill it quickly, and forgot about it. Frozen solid, and SO RIDICULOUSLY DELICIOUS! My husband almost prefers it frozen like a super creamy ice cream. If you make this, you have to at least freeze one slice and see what I’m fussing over!
I’m sure my kids would love some frozen. Thanks for sharing your idea!
