Aunt Betty brings this 4 ingredient wonder to every family cookout and the entire pan is scraped clean before the burgers are even done.

For a lighter version, choose a sugar-free cherry drink mix and a light whipped topping; the pie will still set up nicely and taste sweet from the condensed milk. You can also try different drink mix flavors—strawberry, raspberry, or even tropical punch—for a fun twist while keeping the same easy method. If you have picky eaters who are nervous about strong flavors, use only half the drink mix packet the first time, then adjust to taste the next time you make it. For a slightly firmer, almost frozen treat at a hot cookout, pop the chilled pie into the freezer for 30–45 minutes before serving; just don’t freeze solid, or it will be difficult to slice. To dress it up a bit, pipe extra whipped topping around the edges or sprinkle with crushed graham crackers right before serving. FOOD SAFETY TIPS: Keep the pie refrigerated until serving, and don’t leave it out at room temperature for more than 2 hours (or 1 hour if it’s a very hot day outside), since it contains dairy. Always start with clean utensils and a clean mixing bowl, and avoid double-dipping when tasting. Store leftovers tightly covered in the refrigerator and enjoy within 3–4 days for the best flavor and texture.
