Easy Jello Pie Slice with whipped cream and cherries

Let me show you how crazy easy it is to make a refreshing pie for summer dessert with these simple ingredients. You'll never have to go without dessert again. 😛

The most miraculous thing is that this pineapple pie is literally made without fruit. The flavor is highly customizable as the flavor comes from flavored gelatin and the easy creaminess is from none other than whipped topping.

 

You could not find an easier way to add so much flavor and yummy goodness with less effort which was my #1 goal when deciding to make this.

HOW TO GET A PERFECT SLICE OF PIE

The beautiful thing about this pie is that the filling slices so beautifully. The store-bought pie crust can be touch and go though.

My advice is to leave it in the pie crust tin that it comes with. My second piece of advice would be to make sure the pie is very chilled. 

You could even stick it in the freezer for 10 minutes before slicing to ensure a clean cut with less crumbling. Of course if you are super picky you may consider making your own fool-proof crust instead.

Finally, for a perfect slice of pie, you are going to need a very sharp knife with no ridges. You want the knife to slice through very cleanly for that perfection you are looking for.
