Calories: 393kcal
Equipment
- 1 standup mixer or hand mixer
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust or make your own
- 3 oz raspberry Jell-o dry, small box
- 2 cups frozen raspberries
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 8 oz mascarpone
- 3 tablespoon confectionery sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 12 vanilla meringue cookies or more, if you like
Instructions
- Make the jello by mixing 1 cup of boiling water with 3oz raspberry Jell-o.
- Add 2 cups of frozen raspberries and stir the mixture together.
- Pour the raspberry Jell-o mixture into a prepared 9-inch graham cracker pie crust. Cover and place in the fridge to set for at least 90 minutes, or until the Jello layer is set.
- Make the cream. Using a standup mixer or a hand mixer, whip together heavy cream, mascarpone cheese, 3 tablespoons of confectionery sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla. It should be whipped until thick and stiff (but don't overwhip).
- Place the whipped mascarpone cream on top of the Jello layer and smooth out with a spoon (or, create soft peaks).
- Place in the fridge until ready to serve.
- Break meringue cookies into pieces and decorate the top of the pie with them right before serving.
- Cut into pieces and enjoy!
Notes
Meringue cookies can be hard to find in American grocery stores. I got mine at Trader Joe's. You can also buy them on Amazon.
If you want to use your own graham cracker pie crust, you can do that instead of a storebought one. Just use a 9-inch pie plate.
Use cold mascarpone and cold heavy whipping cream for the best results. Be careful not to overwhip.
Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 2–3 days. The meringue will gradually lose its crispness.
Nutritional values are approximate and do not include meringue cookies on top.
