When the summer heat makes it too hot to turn on the oven, this no bake pie is my go to dessert. It tastes just like a root beer float, but you can enjoy it with a fork. It is a total crowd pleaser for parties or simple family dinners.

You can keep this pie simple by using store bought ingredients, but try to use a high quality root beer extract for the best flavor. It sets up beautifully in the fridge and stays nice and cool for every bite.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon root beer extract
  • 8 ounces whipped topping, thawed
  • 1/4 cup root beer soda
  • Whipped cream for garnish

Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a small bowl until it looks like wet sand.

  2. 2

    Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9 inch pie plate, then put it in the freezer while you make the filling.

  3. 3

    Beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar in a large bowl until smooth and creamy.

  4. 4

    Slowly stir in the root beer extract and the root beer soda.

  5. 5

    Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is uniform and fluffy.

  6. 6

    Pour the filling into your prepared crust and spread it out evenly.

  7. 7

    Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least four hours, or until it is firm enough to slice.

  8. 8

    Top with extra whipped cream before serving.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in the refrigerator covered with plastic wrap for up to three days. For a fun presentation, add a drizzle of chocolate syrup over each slice before you serve it.
