After chilling, prepare whipped cream and add 1 tablespoon of instant vanilla pudding mix to stabilize it.

Spread the whipped cream on top of the pie.

Garnish with lime zest or graham cracker crumbs as desired.

Freeze the pie for a bit before serving, taking it out 15 minutes prior to cut for even slices.
