Description
This no-bake Easter Swirl Pie is bursting with spring colors and creamy flavor. With a rich cream cheese filling, whipped topping, and rainbow pastel swirls, it’s a festive, fun dessert that’s perfect for Easter brunch, spring birthdays, or any cheerful gathering.
Ingredients
You’ll need 8 oz of cream cheese, softened, 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1 ½ cups of whipped topping such as Cool Whip. For the colorful effect, prepare 4 to 5 gel food colorings in pastel shades like pink, blue, yellow, and purple. You’ll also need a pre-made graham cracker crust as the base. For topping, have some whipped cream and Easter-themed sprinkles on hand.
Instructions
Begin by beating the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together in a mixing bowl until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined. Divide the creamy filling evenly into 4 or 5 bowls and mix each with a different pastel gel food coloring. Alternate spoonfuls of the different colors into the graham cracker crust, then swirl them using a toothpick or knife to create a marbled effect. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours until firm. Just before serving, decorate the pie with whipped cream swirls and festive Easter sprinkles. Slice, serve chilled, and enjoy.
Notes
Always use gel food coloring to maintain the thickness of the filling and achieve vibrant swirls. Avoid over-swirling so the colors stay defined. Let the pie chill thoroughly before slicing for clean cuts. You can make this pie a day in advance and decorate just before serving. The pie can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days.
