Make this simple, crowd-pleasing Texas Trash Pie. It combines pretzels, pecans, chocolate, and coconut in a rich filling for a perfect sweet and salty dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (9 inch) frozen deep-dish pie crust
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup butterscotch chips
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup crushed pretzels
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Place the frozen pie crust on a baking sheet.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, coconut, pecans, crushed pretzels, and marshmallows. Mix these dry ingredients gently.
  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the milk mixture over the dry ingredients in the large bowl. Stir until all the mix-ins are evenly coated.
  5. Pour the entire mixture into the unbaked frozen pie crust. Spread the filling evenly.
  6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the top is lightly golden. The center may still look slightly soft.
  7. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. The pie will set as it cools.
  8. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute the butterscotch chips with caramel chips for a different flavor profile.
  • For a richer chocolate flavor, use a mix of milk and semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • If you prefer a crunchier crust, you can bake the crust for 10 minutes before adding the filling, but this recipe works well with an unbaked crust.
  • This pie is best served cold or slightly chilled.
