Ingredients
Scale
- Crust:
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- Filling:
- 1 package (3 oz) of strawberry Jell-O
- 1 package (3 oz) of orange Jell-O
- 1 package (3 oz) of lime Jell-O
- 1 package (3 oz) of blue raspberry Jell-O
- 2 cups boiling water
- 1 cup cold water
- 1 cup whipped cream or whipped topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden brown. Remove and let cool.
- In a large bowl, dissolve each flavor of Jell-O in ½ cup of boiling water, stirring until completely dissolved.
- Add ¼ cup of cold water to each dissolved Jell-O mixture and stir well.
- Pour the first layer of Jell-O into the cooled crust and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour.
- Once set, spread ¼ cup of whipped cream over the first layer, then pour the next layer of Jell-O on top. Repeat this process for each flavor, refrigerating until each layer is set before adding the next.
- After the final layer is set, top the pie with remaining whipped cream and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
