Special Precautions and Tips:
- Be sure to let the Kool-Aid mixture set before adding the whipped topping, otherwise, the pie will be too runny.
- For a more intense flavor, use 2 boxes of Kool-Aid.
- If you don't have an 8-inch pie plate, you can use a 9-inch pie plate. The pie will just be a bit thinner.
