Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 0.25 cups granulated sugar
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 cups water
- 3 ounces Jell-O (any flavor, e.g., strawberry, raspberry, or lime)
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1 cup whipped topping (optional)
- 2 cups fresh summer fruits (e.g., strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, peaches)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form a crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, until it is golden and set. Allow the crust to cool completely.
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Remove from heat and stir in the Jell-O powder until fully dissolved.
Add the remaining 1 cup of water in the form of ice cubes (approximately 8-10 ice cubes, totaling 1 cup) to the hot Jell-O mixture. Stir until the ice has melted and the Jell-O mixture is cool.
Refrigerate the Jell-O for 30-45 minutes, or until it becomes slightly thickened but not fully set.
Arrange the fresh summer fruits evenly over the cooled graham cracker crust.
Pour the slightly thickened Jell-O evenly over the fruit, ensuring all the fruit is covered.
Refrigerate the pie for 3-4 hours, or until the Jell-O is completely set.
Slice and serve with a dollop of whipped topping, if desired. Enjoy the cool, fruity treat!
