Easy as Pie Trifle
Perfect for brunches and bashes, this delicious dessert is as simple as stacking a thawed Marie Callender’s coconut cream pie atop a chocolate satin cream pie. But this easy pie hack doesn’t have to stop there! You can make it with other cream pie combinations, like peanut butter cream pie and banana cream pie, or lemon meringue pie and Key lime pie.
Lemon Lime Twist
Slices of Key lime pie, made with genuine Key West lime juice, and slices of lemon meringue pie, with its signature “sky-high” golden brown meringue, are layered together in a Mason jar to create this creamy, tangy, and tart single-serve dessert. For an extra homemade touch, garnish your trifle with slices of fresh lemon and lime.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie Pairing
Slices of peanut butter cream pie are layered atop rich, chocolaty slices of chocolate satin pie to create melt-in-your-mouth flavor in every indulgent bite.
The King
Inspired by the King of Rock 'n’ Roll, this easy pie in a jar is perfect for anyone who likes a sweet-and-salty treat. Sliced chunks of rich peanut butter cream pie, featuring a made-from-scratch chocolate cookie crumb crust, and banana cream pie are layered atop each other in a Mason jar and garnished with slices of banana and bacon.
Rich Coconut and Chocolate Pie
Place slices of chocolate satin pie into the bottom of a Mason jar, and layer coconut cream pie on top for a rich and complex dessert. Add chocolate curls and a name tag to make it one for the memory books.
