2 (5-ounce) packages powdered whipped topping
2-3/4 cups milk, divided use
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (3 1/2-ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
1 (9-inch) baked pie crust
In a large mixing bowl, combine topping mix, 1 cup of the milk and vanilla. Beat on high speed with an electric mixer for about 6 minutes, or until topping thickens and forms peaks.
Add remaining 1 3/4 cup milk and pudding mix; blend thoroughly. Beat on high another 2 minutes before spooning into baked pie shell. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
