This Easy Mile High Strawberry Jell-O Pie is like a little slice of heaven. Fluffy with cool whip and fresh strawberries.
My Mile high Strawberry Jell-O Pie came out fantastic. I was so happy with the end results. So rich and creamy, refreshing summer dessert. Very easy to make and no-bake, my favorite kind of recipe.
I have mentioned before that my baking skills aren't great haha . If I can find a great dessert that doesn't involve baking I'm always happy to try it. I was looking for a refreshing dessert that was easy to make for a barbeque we were having. I hit the jackpot with this Mile High Strawberry Jell-O Pie. Everyone at the barbeque loved it and were asking for the recipe. No one could believe how easy it was to make. When I told them that it was just simply made with fresh strawberries, strawberry jello, cool whip, and a store-bought gram cracker crust they were in shock.
There is nothing that makes me happier than having all my kids and grandkids here at once. Family is everything. I was blessed to come from a large family that everyone was very close. I now am lucky enough to have married a great man who has given me a great life for almost 35 yrs. We have 4 great grown kids and 4 grandkids that are our world. hoping for some extended family to attend as well. So much fun, hoping mother nature cooperates.
Making the Pie :
You definitely could use different flavors - I would love to try cherry or peach.
Sure the options are endless - a traditional pastry crust, a sugar cookie crust,or maybe a vanilla wafer crust.
If you want to try this Mile High Strawberry Jell-O Pie you will need just a few simple ingredients. Get a store-bought 9-inch graham cracker crust, or of course if you would prefer to make your own, go for it. You will also need fresh strawberries, strawberry Jell-O or gelatin brand of choice, cool whip or other whip toppings. Stay tuned I think I am going to try making this pie with different fruits maybe peaches or raspberries.
