    Tips for making the best Jello pie.

    Key lime pie seems to taste even more authentic when you serve it with slices of lime. You can also top your pie with lime zest as well.

    Here are some more tips for you.

    1. This recipe uses a tub of whipped topping such as Cool Whip. There are sugar free versions of this available in the freezer section of most large grocery or box stores.
    2. This recipe uses both boiling water and ice cold water. It is essential that you use the boiling and the ice water as the reaction is what helps the pie set.
    3. While I am providing you with a pie crust recipe, you are welcome to use the pie crust of your choice. You can even use a premade pie crust if desired.
