Spread into graham cracker crust., Spread remaining whipped topping over pie. Freeze for at least 8 hours or overnight., Dollop reserved whipped topping over each serving; top with a maraschino cherry if desired.

Steps:

• Make the Root Beer Pudding:
• In a commercial blender, grind 1/2 cup root beer candies, the milk powder, cornstarch, and salt into a powder.
• In a medium saucepan over moderate heat, bring the whole milk and root beer soda to a simmer. Carefully add the hot mixture to the powder in the blender, and with the blender on low, process for 1 minute. Add the butter and egg yolks, then gradually increase the blender speed to high and blend until smooth, about 1 minute.
• Carefully pour the hot pudding back into the medium saucepan, place over moderate heat, and cook, whisking vigorously, until it comes to a simmer. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, until the pudding is very thick, about 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Place plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding and refrigerate at least 1 hour. DO AHEAD: The pudding can be prepared ahead and kept, covered in the refrigerator, up to 2 days.
• Make the Smoked Cashew Nougatine:
• Spray a heatproof rubber spatula with nonstick vegetable oil spray and have ready. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat or spray with nonstick vegetable oil spray.
• In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring the sugar, glucose syrup, and water to a simmer. Cook, swirling the pan occasionally but not stirring, until the mixture turns a medium-dark caramel color, about 5 minutes. Add the butter, cashews, and salt and use the sprayed rubber spatula to stir the mixture until the cashews are completely covered in caramel.
• Carefully pour the nougatine onto the prepared baking sheet, and use the rubber spatula to spread it into a thin, even layer. Set aside to cool and harden, about 30 minutes. Once the nougatine is completely cool, use your hands to break it into small pieces then transfer to a Robot Coupe or food processor, and grind into a coarse powder. DO AHEAD: Nougatine can be made ahead and kept, in an airtight container at room temperature, for 1 week.
• For the whipped cream:
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the cream and sugar until medium peaks form.
• To serve:
• Place the remaining 1/2 cup root beer candies in a resealable plastic bag and use a meat mallet or rolling pin to crush them into small pieces.
• Divide the chilled pudding among 4 chilled glasses. Dollop each pudding with whipped cream and garnish with the crushed cashew nougatine and root beer candy pieces.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine dry pudding mix and dry milk powder.
• Add diet root beer.
• Mix well using a wire whisk.
• Blend in 1/4 cup Cool Whip Lite.
• Evenly spoon mixture into 4 dessert dishes.
• Top each with 1 tablespoon Cool Whip Lite.
• Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the graham crackers in the bowl of a food processor and process until you get fine crumbs. (This can also be done in a large plastic zip-close bag with a rolling pin.) Pour the crumbs into a large bowl. Add the melted butter and stir until evenly mixed.
• Press the crumb mixture into a 9-inch pie plate, gently packing them so they're firm and in an even layer. If you go up and over the sides, that is fine. Bake the crust for 5 minutes; let it cool and then chill for 20 minutes.
• For the filling: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, add the cream and confectioners' sugar and whip until firm peaks form.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the root beer, milk, pudding mix and root beer extract until thick, about 2 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold 2 cups of the whipped cream into the root beer mixture until almost completely blended. Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth out with a spatula. Top the pie with the remaining whipped cream.
• Garnish with maraschino cherries and chill for at least 2 hours. Enjoy!
