Ingredients
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened

- 1 ½ cups whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
- 4–5 gel food colors (pastel shades: pink, blue, yellow, purple)
- 1 pre-made graham cracker crust
- Whipped cream (for garnish)
- Easter sprinkles (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Pie Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Fold in Whipped Topping: Gently fold in the whipped topping until well combined.
- Color the Filling: Divide the filling into separate bowls and add a different gel food coloring to each bowl.
- Assemble the Pie: Pour the colored filling into the graham cracker crust, alternating colors to create a swirl pattern. Use a knife or toothpick to gently swirl the colors together for a marbled effect.
- Chill and Garnish: Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to set. Before serving, garnish with whipped cream and Easter sprinkles.
- Serve: Slice and enjoy the vibrant, creamy Easter Swirl Pie!
Notes
- To make this pie ahead of time, prepare it a day before and let it chill overnight.
- For a different twist, try using lemon or almond extract in place of vanilla.
- If you don’t have gel food coloring, liquid food coloring can be used, but it may give a less vibrant effect.
