Raspberry Pie

I love these raspberry pies. It's easy to cut in half and make only 2. These are definitely Jacki's favorite pie. Pretty easy to make and very tasty.

Makes 4

4 graham cracker pie crusts (Make or buy)
Bottom layer:
2 8 oz pkgs cream cheese, softened,
then mixed with ¼ cup half and half or milk.
Fold in 12 oz Cool Whip.
Place mixture in pie shells and refrigerate.

Second layer:
2 6oz pkgs raspberry jello
5 cups boiling water
3 TBS lemon juice
1 Cup sugar
Lemon zest if desired
3 to 4 10 oz pkgs frozen raspberries
Dissolve jello in water. Mix in other ingredients except raspberries. Add 3 to 4 pkgs frozen raspberries. Refrigerate in bowl until almost solid. Stir so the berries will be distributed. Then pour on top of bottom layer in pie shells.
Refrigerate until set.
Top with Cool Whip.
