In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until smooth and thickened, about 2 minutes.
Gently fold in the Cool Whip or whipped topping into the pudding mixture until completely combined and fluffy.
Spread the pudding and whipped topping mixture evenly into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and heavy cream. Heat in the microwave in 20-second increments, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and the ganache is smooth and shiny.
Stir in the vanilla extract to enhance the flavor of the chocolate ganache.
Carefully pour the chocolate ganache over the pudding layer in the pie crust, spreading it out evenly to cover the entire surface.
Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
Once set, slice and serve. Optional: Garnish with additional whipped topping, chocolate shavings, or fresh berries for an extra touch.
