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 together until the Kool Aid powder is fully dissolved and the mixture has an even, vibrant color. Then gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the filling is creamy and smooth.
- Fill the Crust: Pour the prepared Kool Aid filling evenly into the 9-inch graham cracker pie crust. Use a spatula to spread the mixture smoothly and evenly across the crust base.
- Cover and Refrigerate: Lightly cover the pie with plastic wrap or cling film. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, allowing the filling to set firmly and the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Garnish and Serve: Before serving, garnish the pie with dollops of whipped cream or additional whipped topping and a scattering of fresh strawberries for a fresh, colorful finish. Slice the pie and serve chilled for the best taste and texture.
Notes
- You can substitute the strawberry syrup with strawberry jelly or other flavored syrups to customize the pie flavor.
- For a firmer crust, chill the pie crust before filling it.
- This pie must be kept refrigerated to maintain its creamy texture and freshness.
- Kool Aid flavors can be swapped easily to create different vibrant versions of this pie.
- Use fresh whipped cream for garnish instead of store-bought whipped topping for a more natural taste.
