Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Group: Crust
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs I use Honey Maid for a hint of sweetness.
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
Group: Filling
  • 1 8 oz cream cheese, softened Philadelphia is my go-to.
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 8 oz whipped topping, thawed I love using Cool Whip for its airy texture.
Group: Jello Layer
  • 1 3 oz strawberry Jello
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1 ½ cups fresh strawberries, halved Pick the ripest ones for maximum flavor.

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this blend firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Set aside to cool completely.
  2. In a mixing bowl, dissolve the strawberry Jello in 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved. Let it cool to room temperature.
  3. In a large bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Fold in the whipped topping gently until fully combined, creating a light and fluffy filling.
  4. Pour the creamy filling into the cooled graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly. Layer the halved strawberries atop the filling, and pour the cooled strawberry Jello mixture over the berries.
  5. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the Jello sets.
  6. When ready to serve, slice the pie with a warm knife and enjoy!

Notes

Allowing the pie to chill adequately is essential for a perfect set. Don't rush the process!
