3-Ingredient Jello Pie (Easy No Bake Recipe)
Description
The recipe starts by dissolving a box of flavored gelatin in boiling water, stirred until completely dissolved, then mixing in cold water. Whipped topping is then folded into the gelatin mixture before it chills in the refrigerator to firm up slightly.
The chilled filling is poured into a premade graham cracker crust and refrigerated for several hours until fully set. The final pie has a bright, fruity gelatin layer balanced by the smooth, creamy whipped topping, and the graham cracker crust provides a crunchy base.
This pie is a convenient, no-bake dessert option requiring little preparation and few ingredients. Variations include using different flavored gelatins or sugar-free versions. It’s important to use whipped topping like Cool Whip for proper texture, as real whipped cream behaves differently.
Ingredients
- 1 box cherry gelatin mix 3oz box (plus 2/3 cup boiling water and 1 cup ice water
- 8 oz Cool Whip or similar whipped topping
- 1 Graham Cracker Crust premade
Instructions
- Whisk together jello and boiling water until fully dissolved, in a large bowl. Stir in cold water.
- Whisk in cool whip and refrigerate mixture for 30 minutes.
- Scoop chilled pie filling into the pre-made crust.
- Return to refrigerator for 3-4 hours, or until fully set.
Notes
- Use whipped topping specifically rather than real whipped cream to achieve the correct filling texture.
- Sugar-free gelatin can be substituted to reduce sugar content.
- Any preferred flavor of gelatin may be used in place of cherry.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
