Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons strawberry syrup or strawberry jelly
- 1 packet (0.19 ounces) Kool Aid powder (strawberry, strawberry lemonade, or your favorite flavor)
- 8 ounces whipped topping, thawed
Crust
- 1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
Garnishes (Optional)
- Whipped cream or additional whipped topping
- Fresh strawberries
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, strawberry syrup (or jelly), and Kool Aid powder. Whisk thoroughly until the Kool Aid powder is fully dissolved and the mixture has an even color. Then gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the mixture is creamy and smooth.
- Fill the Crust: Pour the Kool Aid mixture into the prepared 9-inch graham cracker pie crust. Use a spatula to spread and level the filling evenly within the crust.
- Cover and Refrigerate: Lightly cover the pie with plastic wrap or foil and place it in the refrigerator. Chill for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is fully set and firm.
- Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish the pie with dollops of whipped cream or additional whipped topping and scatter fresh strawberries on top for added freshness and decoration. Slice the pie and serve chilled.
Notes
- You can choose any flavor of Kool Aid powder to customize the pie’s taste and color.
- Ensure the whipped topping is fully thawed before folding to maintain a smooth texture.
- For a firmer crust, prebake the graham cracker crust lightly before adding the filling if using homemade crust.
- Keep the pie refrigerated until ready to serve to maintain its structure and freshness.
- This recipe is perfect for a quick no-bake dessert that kids will love to help make.
