Ingredients
- 1 (14-oz / 397 g) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (8-oz / 225 g) tub whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip), thawed
- 1 packet (0.13 oz / 3.6 g) unsweetened Kool Aid drink mix, flavor of choice
- 1 (9-inch) prepared graham cracker pie crust
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk the sweetened condensed milk and Kool Aid powder until the color is uniform and the mixture is smooth.
- Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until fully incorporated and no streaks remain.
- Spoon the fluffy filling into the graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) until the pie is firm and set.
- Slice and serve cold. Garnish with additional whipped cream or fresh fruit if desired.
Notes
- Flavor swap: Any unsweetened Kool Aid works—try cherry, blue raspberry, lemonade, or tropical punch.
- Creamier option: Beat 4 oz (113 g) softened cream cheese into the condensed milk before adding Kool Aid for a cheesecake-like texture.
- Crust variety: Substitute a chocolate or Oreo crust for a fun twist.
- Freezer tip: Freeze the pie 30 minutes before slicing for neater wedges on hot days.
- Storage: Refrigerate up to 5 days or freeze up to 1 month; thaw overnight in the fridge.
