Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
For the Jello Filling:
- 1 (3 oz) box strawberry Jello
- 1 (3 oz) box lemon Jello
- 1 (3 oz) box lime Jello
- 1 (3 oz) box berry blue Jello
- 1 cup boiling water (per Jello flavor)
- ½ cup cold water (per Jello flavor)
- 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
- 1 cup vanilla yogurt or sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
Prepare the Crust:
- In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter.
- Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish. Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Prepare the Jello Layers:
- Dissolve each Jello flavor in 1 cup boiling water. Stir in ½ cup cold water. Let cool slightly.
- Divide each Jello mixture in half. Mix one half with ¼ cup yogurt or condensed milk for a creamy pastel layer.
Layer the Jello:
- Pour the first creamy Jello layer into the crust. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes until set.
- Add a clear Jello layer of the same flavor. Refrigerate again.
- Repeat for all Jello flavors, alternating between creamy and clear layers.
Top and Serve:
- Once fully set, spread whipped topping over the pie.
- Garnish with Easter sprinkles, marshmallows, or pastel candies.
- Slice and enjoy!
Notes
- Jello Flavor Variations: Feel free to swap out flavors to match your favorite color scheme or holiday theme.
- Chilling Time: Ensure each layer is fully set before adding the next to prevent colors from blending.
- Crust Alternatives: Instead of graham crackers, try a vanilla wafer or Oreo crust for a different flavor.
- Dairy-Free Option: Use dairy-free whipped topping and coconut yogurt instead of condensed milk or regular yogurt.
- Serving Tip: For clean slices, dip a sharp knife in warm water before cutting.
- Storage: Keep the pie refrigerated and covered for up to 3 days. Freezing is not recommended as it may alter the texture.
