Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted)
For the Filling:
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream (cold)
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles (plus extra for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand. Firmly press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even layer. Set aside.
- Make the Filling: Beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer in a large mixing bowl until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined and smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture along with the rainbow sprinkles until fully incorporated.
- Assemble the Pie: Spoon the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Serve: Before serving, sprinkle additional rainbow sprinkles on top. Slice and serve chilled for a festive, creamy dessert.
Notes
- Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
- Use cold heavy cream for better whipping results.
- Refrigeration is essential to allow the pie to set properly.
- This pie is best served within 2 days for optimal freshness.
- Optional: Use gluten-free graham crackers to make the crust gluten-free.
