Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 3 ounces lime jello mix
  • ½ cup boiling water
  • 1 cup cold water
  • 8 ounces Cool Whip, thawed (1 tub)
  • 1 10-inch prepared graham cracker pie crust
  • whipped cream for garnish
  • lime slices for garnish

Instructions

  • Step 1: Prepare the Jello. Start by boiling water in your kettle or saucepan. Once it reaches a rolling boil, measure out ½ cup of the boiling water and pour it into a mixing bowl. Add the 3 ounces of lime jello mix to the water, stirring until the jello is completely dissolved.
  • Step 2: Add Cold Water. Next, add 1 cup of cold water to the jello mixture. Stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
  • Step 3: Mix in the Cool Whip. Carefully fold in the 8 ounces of thawed Cool Whip. Use a spatula to gently mix, being careful to maintain the fluffiness of the Cool Whip.
  • Step 4: Fill the Pie Crust. Once the Cool Whip is fully incorporated, pour the jello filling into the prepared graham cracker pie crust. Use a spatula to spread it evenly.
  • Step 5: Chill. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Allow it to chill for at least 4 hours, or until the filling has fully set.
  • Step 6: Serve and Enjoy. Once your pie has set, top with whipped cream and garnish with fresh lime slices. Slice into wedges and enjoy!

Notes

Make sure your Cool Whip is fully thawed to ensure easy mixing with the jello. For a more pronounced lime flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of freshly squeezed lime juice to the jello mixture.
