Description
This Key Lime Yogurt Pie is a quick and refreshing dessert featuring tangy lime gelatin and creamy Key lime yogurt combined with light whipped topping in a crunchy graham cracker crust. Perfect for a no-bake treat ready in under 30 minutes and chilled to perfection.
Ingredients
Gelatin Mixture
- 1/4 cup boiling water
- 1 package (3 ounces) lime gelatin
Filling
- 2 cartons (6 ounces each) Key lime yogurt
- 1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
Crust
- 1 9-inch graham cracker crust
Instructions
- Prepare the Gelatin: In a large bowl, pour 1/4 cup boiling water over the lime gelatin. Stir continuously for two minutes until the gelatin is completely dissolved to ensure a smooth consistency.
- Mix the Filling: Whisk the Key lime yogurt into the gelatin mixture until fully combined. Then gently fold in the thawed whipped topping to maintain a light and airy texture.
- Assemble the Pie: Pour the prepared filling mixture evenly into the 9-inch graham cracker crust, spreading it gently to the edges.
- Chill the Pie: Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least two hours until the filling is fully set and firm enough to slice.
Notes
- Use thawed whipped topping for the best folding results and a creamy texture.
- Refrigeration time can be extended up to 4 hours for a firmer pie.
- This pie is best served chilled and goes well with fresh lime slices or a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs for garnish.
- For a lower sugar option, consider using sugar-free lime gelatin and yogurt varieties.
