## **Instructions**
### **1. Prepare the Crust**
1. In a mixing bowl, combine **crushed graham crackers**, **sugar**, and **melted butter**. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
2. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a **9-inch pie pan**, making sure to cover the bottom and slightly up the sides.
3. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
### **2. Prepare the Jell-O Layers**
1. **Start with the first Jell-O layer**: Dissolve one packet of Jell-O in **1 cup of boiling water**, stirring until completely dissolved. Then, stir in **1 cup of cold water**.
2. **Divide the mixture**: Take **half** of the Jell-O and pour it directly over the crust. Place the pie in the refrigerator to **chill for 15-20 minutes**, or until slightly set but not fully firm.
3. **Make the creamy layer**: Mix the remaining half of the Jell-O with **⅓ cup of whipped topping**, stirring gently to combine. Once the first layer is slightly firm, pour the creamy Jell-O layer on top. Return the pie to the fridge to chill for another **15-20 minutes**.
4. **Repeat for the remaining Jell-O flavors**, alternating between clear and creamy layers. Allow each layer to firm up slightly before adding the next to prevent blending.
5. Once all layers are added, chill the pie for at least **4 hours** (or overnight) until fully set.
### **3. Add the Finishing Touches**
1. Before serving, **spread or pipe extra whipped topping** over the top of the pie.
2. Sprinkle with **Easter-themed sprinkles, pastel candies, or mini marshmallows** for a festive touch.
3. For an extra fun look, toss **shredded coconut** with **a few drops of green food coloring** and sprinkle it around the edges to resemble Easter grass.
### **4. Serve and Enjoy!**
