Serve & Garnish
Before serving, remove the pie from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes. This softens the filling slightly, giving it a creamy, ice-cream-like texture.
Slice and garnish each piece with whipped cream, a maraschino cherry, and crushed root beer barrel candy if desired. The garnish adds visual flair and extra nostalgia.
Notes & Tips
- Use cold root beer and milk to help the pudding set more quickly.
- Pre-slicing the pie before freezing makes serving easier.
- You can substitute homemade whipped cream for Cool Whip for a fresher flavor.
- Store leftovers covered in the freezer for up to one week.
Cool, creamy, and packed with classic soda-shop flavor, this Root Beer Float Pie is a crowd-pleasing dessert that proves no-bake treats can be just as memorable and delicious as traditional baked pies.
