Description

A creamy, nostalgic no-bake Root Beer Float Pie that captures the classic soda fountain flavor with marshmallows and whipped cream — perfect for summer gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pre-made graham cracker crust
  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
  • Whipped cream, for topping
  • Maraschino cherries, for garnish


Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk vanilla pudding mix with cold root beer until thickened.
  2. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the root beer pudding mixture until smooth and fluffy.
  4. Fold in mini marshmallows for added texture.
  5. Spoon the filling evenly into the graham cracker crust.
  6. Smooth the top with a spatula.
