Kraft Kitchens Tips

Makeover - How We Did It

We've taken a classic pie and given it a makeover. We omitted the eggs and condensed milk to give this pie a fluffier texture. The tart lime filling is made with JELL-O Lime Flavor Sugar Free Gelatin, COOL WHIP FREE Whipped Topping and fresh lime zest and juice. These small changes result in a savings of 170 calories and 7.5 grams of fat per serving.

Special Extra

Garnish with thin lime wedges and/or additional lime zest.

Lemon Chiffon Pie

Prepare as directed, using JELL-O Lemon Flavor Sugar Free Gelatin, lemon zest and lemon juice.

I LOVE this recipe! From previous experience, I used less water and I folded in the cool whip. Folding makes a BIG difference. I had the gastric bypass so sugar is a no-no, but I used regular cool whip and had no problem. Most definately a keeper.

I made this over the summer. The taste was fine, but I don't know what happenend - it never really congealed and was like green slop in crust.

Great recipe! I have had trouble once making it with the COOL WHIP FREE Whipped Topping (listed in the ingredients) rather than the regular COOL WHIP. It came out fine, but after eating it and saving the rest for later in the refrigerator, the pie became runny and slowly melted. I had been told by others that it may have been its lack in fat and or sugar. I'm not sure, maybe just that time it was me messing it up. Besides that, I have been making it with regular Cool Whip and have had wonderful and delicious results.

I used an 8 serving package of Lime Sugar-Free Jello, but it still turned out wonderful.

I could've sworn I rated this recipe before...I get requests all the time to make this pie, it's so light and delicious. I made it again a few days ago with "Extra Creamy" Cool Whip instead of the regular and it made a big difference, the pie was even more creamy and delicious than ever.
