- 3 oz package Jell-O gelatin mix (any flavor)
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 0.5 cups Cold water
- 8 oz Frozen whipped topping (thawed)

Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, pour the gelatin mix and add the boiling water. Stir thoroughly for about 2 minutes until completely dissolved.

Transfer the mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly to ensure a smooth, flat top.
