Notes
for up to a week, but the texture of the crust will change over time. Once it's in the fridge the crust will soften, so it's best enjoyed within a day or two.
You can freeze French silk pie. It's actually a great make-ahead dessert for parties and holiday dinners. Once you scoop the filling into the pie crust, tightly wrap the pie and it will keep in the freezer for up to three months. To thaw, transfer it to the refrigerator a day before you want to serve it. Before serving the pie top it with the Cool Whip and chocolate curls.
