How to Make Frosting In The Pie

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake a 9-inch pie crust according to package directions, or use your favorite homemade recipe. Let it cool completely.
In a large bowl, beat 8 ounces (225g) of softened cream cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
Gradually add 1 ½ cups (340g) of your favorite frosting (chocolate, vanilla, strawberry – get creative!), beating until well combined and fluffy.
Gently fold in 8 ounces (227g) of thawed cool whip until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the frosting mixture into the cooled pie crust.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set completely.
