In a medium-sized, heat-safe mixing bowl, add the raspberry-flavored instant gelatin powder. Pour the boiling water over the raspberry gelatin and whisk until completely dissolved.
In a small bowl, add the cold water and sprinkle the packet of unflavored gelatin evenly over the cold water. Allow the gelatin to sit for a minute or two to dissolve and “bloom”.
Pour the bloomed unflavored gelatin into the bowl of dissolved raspberry gelatin and whisk to thoroughly combine.
Stir the crushed ice into the raspberry gelatin mixture until the ice has completely melted.
Fold the thawed whipped topping into the raspberry gelatin mixture until no white streaks remain.
Add half the fresh raspberries to the whipped topping pie mixture and gently fold them in, being sure not to break up the raspberries too much.
Sprinkle the remaining half of the fresh raspberries into the bottom of the pre-made graham cracker pie crust.
Evenly spread the raspberry pie filling into the graham cracker pie crust.
Chill the no-bake raspberry pie in the refrigerator, lightly covered with plastic wrap, for a minimum of 4 hours or up to overnight.
Garnish with the 4 ounces of thawed whipped topping (placed into a piping bag fitted with a large decorating tip) and additional fresh raspberries.

Due to the delicate nature of fresh raspberries, I highly suggest NOT rinsing them before adding them. If you are concerned, I recommend using organic raspberries. If you do rinse them, do so in cold water and gently pat them dry very well, so you don’t add any excess moisture to the whipped topping pie filling or the crust layer.
This recipe needs to chill in the fridge for about 4 hours before serving. This is a great recipe to make the day before so that it is ready when you need it.
Blooming gelatin means allowing it to sit for 3 to 5 minutes until it has absorbed the liquid and the powdered granules have dissolved. The granules will swell as it blooms.
You can save the plastic cover that comes with your pre-made graham cracker crust to flip over and use as a lid for storage in the refrigerator.
If your pie crust is in a foil tin, we’d recommend sitting it (foil pan and all) inside a glass pie plate to give it a bit more stability when taking it in and out of the fridge.
