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!

I only recently tried eggnog for the first time and I'm 27! I'm now addicted to the stuff, this pie looks divine! Visiting from Treasure Box Tuesday. I co-host Sweet and Savoury Sunday and would love for you to stop by and share this and other recipes with us. Have a great day!
Now I have never heard of an eggnog pie before…this looks wonderful! 🙂
Looks really yummy. My kiddos adore eggnog so I bet they'd be over the moon if I made this for them!
Thanks, Ginnie. My family just gobbled it right up! 🙂
Hi Dee, I just came across your recipe for eggnog pie. It looked and sounded amazing. I went ahead and made it last night but I just realized I might have measured wrong. The recipe says 2 cups of whipped topping. So I made it with 16oz. Of whipped topping. Should I have used actual cups and not oz?
Hi Joan! We always measure out two cups of the topping from one container.
One cup is 8ozs. So using a 16 oz container is your 2 cups! No measuring needed
Cool Whip defies logic and science. If you measure 2 cups, you will have about 1/2-2/3 cup left. For the pie to have the right consistency, you need to measure exactly 2 cups.
Yes. It really does need to be 2 cups of whipped topping and not the whole container.
Joan- 8 oz of heavy whipping cream should make 2 cups of whipped cream. Sounds like you made twice as much as you needed. I don’t used store bought whipped topping so I make my own also ;o)
Yum! This looks so delicious! I think I will make one for Christmas dinner:)
