Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 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
- 1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
Garnishes (Optional)
- Whipped cream or additional whipped topping
- Fresh strawberries
Instructions
- Mix Ingredients: 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 dissolves completely and the mixture achieves an even color. Then gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the filling is creamy and smooth.
- Fill Pie Crust: Pour the Kool Aid mixture into the prepared 9-inch graham cracker pie crust. Use a spatula to spread the filling evenly across the crust, ensuring a smooth surface.
- Chill: Lightly cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 4 hours. This chilling time allows the filling to set properly, developing a firm, sliceable texture.
- Garnish and Serve: Before serving, decorate the pie with whipped cream or extra whipped topping and fresh strawberries if desired. Cut into slices and serve chilled for a refreshing dessert experience.
Notes
- Choose your favorite Kool Aid flavor to customize the pie’s taste and color.
- For a firmer crust, bake your homemade graham cracker crust before filling, if desired.
- The pie must be refrigerated for at least 4 hours, so plan ahead for the best results.
- Leftovers should be stored in the refrigerator tightly covered and consumed within 2-3 days.
- Use gelatin-free whipped topping if a vegetarian option is preferred.
