Strawberry Mousse Pie

This is the BEST pie ever! I found this recipe in a magazine about 12-15 years ago but lost it. I have been looking for this exact recipe ever since. I knew the ingredients but never the measurements. Thank you for posting this recipe. P.S. the garnishings of coconut should be in little piles around the edges and one in the middle to look like little bird's nests and then the pastel
M&Ms go ontop like the eggs. Adorable and tasty. You can also substitue everything with sugarfree and fat free products. It still tastes great...did that while on dieting.

If I didn't make this pie at Easter my family would cry! I have been making this pie for years after finding it in a magazine. This year I bought all the ingredients but couldn't find my recipe. Thanks for posting!
