Ingredients
  

  • 1 9-inch Graham cracker pie crust (see recipe)

  • 1 cup Powdered sugar
  • 1 8-ounce container Cool Whip, thawed (or 3 cups homemade whipped cream, see recipe)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Crust: If you're making your own graham cracker pie crust, prepare it according to the recipe and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes, or freeze for 15 minutes, to set before filling.

Notes

  • Cream Cheese: Make sure the cream cheese is softened to ensure a smooth filling. You can leave it out at room temperature for about an hour or use the microwave in short bursts.
  • Consistency: For a thicker filling, use less Cool Whip or whipped cream. Adjust to your preference for a firmer or creamier texture.
