VERY NICE. I didn't like how jellied the jello got while cooling to room temp but the mix tasted really good. I made the mistake of Freezing the pie like we do with the pineapple one we make- big goof cause since watermelon is almost all water it make watermelon ice cubes in the pie! Which gave me a idea for punches! freeze the water melon and use like ice cubes! Anyway this is a great fluffy pie with a bunch of flavor! and you really don't need the watermelon in it if you don't want chunks! Thanks so much for sharing

My first attempt in 2003 did not turn out the greatest.I have made this several times since. Always being asked for the recipe. Using chunks is the best, be sure to use 9 oz. crust, be sure to use 12 oz. tub of Cool Whip. Be sure you allow the gelatin to cool to room temp. If you brush the crust with egg white then bake be sure to cool completely. I do not cover it in the refrigerator so moisture does not collect. I just finished making another one. Not runny, nice and thick.
