The Recipe Critic Pro Tip:
When making the gelatin mixture: add the hot water to the gelatin and let it dissolve, then add your cold water and ice cubes, let it sit for about 5 MINUTES to let it thicken slightly before you add the cool whip otherwise it won’t set up and it will be runny/soupy.
Can you Make Ahead a No-Bake Pie?
Yes! This pie is best when prepared 24 hours in advance. It is hard to wait that long once you smell the delicious fresh strawberry and graham cracker crust. However, allowing it to sit will only enhance the flavors and is totally worth it. For more storage information I have listed some guidelines for you to keep in mind.
Make ahead: Make more than one of these pies at a time and freeze. This will ensure you always have a delicious dessert ready to thaw whenever you are in the mood! Cover well with freezer safe wrap and your pie will remain safe in the freezer for up to 8 months. Leftovers: If you do find yourself with leftovers, then you will need to cover them loosely and keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
