This whipped pie can be served frozen or refrigerated as the perfect complement to a hot summer day. Or night. Or anytime you want to eat it. Heck, this pie is great even at 3:00 in the morning! Not that I would do that.
What You Need:
8 oz. tub of cool whip (You may substitute 2.5 cups heavy whipping cream for a creamier pie)
2 boxes (4-serving size each) sugar-free strawberry jello
1 and 3/4 cups water
1 cup heavy whipping cream
4 squares semi-sweet chocolate
3 tbsp. xylitol (if you don't mind using sugar, you may substitute equal parts)
18-20 Oreo cookies (crushed)
3 tbsp. melted butter
Now, to make it...
- Mix melted butter and crushed cookies together until crumbly mixture forms. Press onto bottom of pie pan and set aside.
- Heat heavy whipping cream to a simmer, and pour over the top of chocolate. Whisk together until melted, adding xylitol.
- Refrigerate chocolate mixture for 15-20 minutes or until relatively firm (but still able to pour).
- Boil 1 and 3/4 cups water, and pour over the top of jello mix. Stir rapidly (fork or whisk works best) until completely dissolved.
- Add jello to Cool Whip, and mix until smooth. Set aside - do not refrigerate.
- Pour chocolate mixture over crust and freeze for approximately 20 minutes until firm.
- Pour Cool Whip mixture over chocolate layer.
- Refrigerate (or freeze, if preferred) until set.
- Optional: garnish with chopped strawberries and drizzled chocolate.
ENJOY! Happy 4th of July!
