1/4-1/2 cup of sugar

If you don't like Almond Joy's... you are crazy! Ha! Anyhow, here is our adventure in making an Almond Joy pie for my Mom's birthday. My mom's favorite is coconut anything, so it seemed fitting.

| Pouring in the packages of the pudding |
I had picked up the Almond Joy pudding package at the store in KS and then picked up the graham cracker crust in CO. Not realizing that there was a difference in the size of the crust. If you got the smaller one you need to use 1 pudding package, if you got the larger one you need two. You already know that I grabbed the larger crust because that would mean I would have to go back to the store for a second pudding package. Thankfully my brother went for me instead so that I wouldn't have to drag my little ones to grab just 1 package of pudding. They didn't have the Almond Joy pudding so he grabbed some dark chocolate pudding.

I am sure glad that I had my helpers! Once the pudding was done I put it into the graham cracker crust.
MJ helped me make the whip cream! With some whipping cream and sugar. Then put that on top of the pudding mixture.

| I was taking pictures on my phone, it was hard because my subject was staying still... hopefully you caught the sarcasm! |

| I toasted some almonds and then coconut and put it on top of the whip cream. Who is drooling! |
My mom really enjoyed the pie. I am not sure if it was because of her boys who made it for her or because Almond Joy is her favorite candy bar! Maybe a little of both!
