Fluffy Lime Pie

September 1, 2014 Sharon Leave a comment

Fluffy Lime Pie made with lime jello, cool whip and lime yogurt.

This is a light, fluffy cool dessert that you can make in 5 minutes and it is very delicious. This could be made with different flavors of jello and yogurt to suit your own tastes.

Ingredients:

1 3 oz. package lime Jello
1/4 cup boiling water
2 6 oz. containers lime yogurt
8 oz. frozen whipped topping, such as Cool Whip
1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust
lime slices and whipped cream, for garnish

Directions:

Dissolve the Lime Jello in the boiling water.

Whisk in the yogurt and frozen whipped topping until smooth. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 3 hours or until firm.

Serve garnished with fresh lime slices and whipped cream.

*I used lime flavored Chobani Greek Yogurt.

(Someone please tell Chobani that KEY limes are yellow, not green!! Slip-ups like that are an insult to Floridians.)

This Fluffy Lime Pie is a pretty green color and would be a great dessert to serve for St. Patrick’s Day or Christmas.

Today’s recipe is from InKatrinasKitchen.com and is a recipe for S’mores Mousse cups.

S’mores Cups Recipe

YIELD: 8 mini dessert cups

PREP TIME: 15 minutes

TOTAL TIME: 3 hours, or overnight

“Fluffy S’mores no-bake mousse cups

INGREDIENTS:

8oz Cream Cheese, room temperature
4oz package of chocolate pudding (powder)
2 Cups powdered sugar
1/2 Cup Biscoff spread
8oz tub of Cool Whip
2-3 Tablespoons milk
marshmallows and graham crackers for garnish

DIRECTIONS:

In the bowl of your electric mixer combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, pudding powder, milk, and Biscoff spread.
Fold in Cool Whip
Pipe into cups of any size and garnish with graham crackers and marshmallows.
Chill for at least 3 hours or overnight (will become a firmer consistency)

NOTES:

I have also made this in a 9×13 dish layered between graham crackers.
Biscoff spread gives a hint of graham cracker taste in the dish. You can substitute peanut butter if you do not have Biscoff available to you.
I did not try this recipe with fresh whipped cream so I do not know if you can substitute it for the Cool Whip.”
