Cool Whip Strawberry Creation (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

01 - 1 cup whipped topping
02 - 1 (3.4 oz) box instant vanilla pudding powder
03 - 1 ready-made graham cracker pie shell
04 - 1 cup milk
05 - 2 cups fresh strawberries, cut into slices
06 - 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
07 - 1 tsp pure vanilla flavor

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Blend the pudding powder with milk until it's lump-free. Wait about 5 minutes for it to set up.
02 - Carefully mix in the whipped topping without deflating it.
03 - Add the confectioners' sugar and vanilla flavor, then stir everything together.
04 - Spread half your sliced strawberries on the bottom of the crust, then pour half the pudding mix over them.
05 - Add the rest of your strawberries next, followed by the remaining pudding mixture on top.
06 - Put it in the fridge for at least 2 hours so it firms up nicely.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Always pick ripe strawberries for maximum sweetness and juiciness.
02 - Try swapping the whipped topping with hand-whipped cream or thick Greek yogurt for a twist.
03 - You can fix this treat a day ahead for your guests and keep it cold until serving time.
