Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 0.25 cups granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 3 ounces strawberry gelatin (Jello mix)
• 1 cups boiling water
• 0.5 cups cold water
• 0.5 cups ice cubes
• 1 cup whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until combined and resembling wet sand.

Step 3

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form an even crust.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let it cool completely.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberry gelatin with 1 cup of boiling water. Stir until the gelatin is fully dissolved.

Step 6

Add the cold water and ice cubes to the gelatin mixture, stirring until the mixture thickens slightly (about 2-3 minutes). Remove any remaining ice cubes.

Step 7

Fold in the fresh sliced strawberries, ensuring the fruit is evenly distributed.

Step 8

Pour the strawberry mixture into the cooled crust and spread it out evenly. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is fully set.

Step 9

In a chilled mixing bowl, whip the whipping cream with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.

Step 10

Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, then continue whipping until stiff peaks form.

Step 11

Spread or pipe the whipped cream evenly over the top of the set pie.

Step 12

Garnish with a few extra fresh strawberry slices, if desired. Serve chilled and enjoy!
