Ingredients
  

  • 1 (8 oz.) bar cream cheese softened
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 premade, name brand, graham cracker crust
  • 2 cups halved strawberries, divided
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries, divided
  • 1 envelope Dream Whip Whipped Topping Mix
  • ½ cup skim or 1% cold milk for whip
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 package (4-serving) lemon flavor instant pudding and pie filling
  • 1 cup cold milk for pudding

Instructions
 

  • In a medium mixing bowl, use a hand mixer on a low/medium setting to beat cream cheese, sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk until smooth. Then spread the mixture evenly into the bottom of the pre-made crust.
  • Gently press 1 cup of the halved strawberries and ½ cup blueberries into the cream cheese mixture. (The remaining berries are reserved for the topping.)
  • In a large mixing bowl, prepare the Dream Whip according to package directions: Combine the contents of the envelope, ½ cup skim milk and vanilla; use mixer on low speed to combine. Then beat on high speed for 4 minutes or until soft peaks form. Set momentarily aside while you prepare the pudding.
  • In a separate, medium mixing bowl, make pudding according to package directions, using the remaining 1 cup of milk. Then fold 1 cup of the prepared whip into the pudding.
  • Gently spread pudding mixture over the berries in the pie crust, taking time to make sure the mixture reaches the crust's edges.
  • Refrigerate pie until set (about 2 hours). Refrigerate remaining whip and berries, which will be used in the next step.
  • Once pie is set, spread the remaining prepared whip on top, sealing it to the edges. Then top with the remaining berries.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.

Notes

Only use fresh berries for this recipe. Frozen berries are too watery and will affect the consistency of the pie.
For the best results, ensure the pie chills in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to set completely. Adding the final layer of Dream Whip and fresh berries to a fully chilled pie prevents the layers from bleeding and keeps this no-bake dessert looking picture-perfect.
I like to use a Keebler's Ready-Made Graham Crust as a shortcut, but feel free to make your own. Just keep in mind that the standard 9-inch pie plate is bigger than a store-bought crust.
