Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, dissolve 3 oz strawberry Jell-O mix in 1 cup boiling water, stirring for 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Stir in 1 cup cold water and refrigerate until slightly thickened, about 20 minutes.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, beat 8 oz cream cheese with 3/4 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes with an electric mixer.
  3. Step 3: Fold 8 oz cool whip gently into the cream cheese mixture until evenly combined and fluffy.
  4. Step 4: Pour half of the softened Jell-O mixture into the 9-inch graham cracker pie crust and chill for 15 minutes until slightly set.
  5. Step 5: Spread the cream cheese and cool whip mixture evenly over the partially set Jell-O layer. Pour the remaining Jell-O mixture on top gently to create a smooth layer.
  6. Step 6: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until fully set. Slice and serve chilled.
