What is in Lemonade Pie?
This is the simplest of pie recipes and makes for a favorite summer treat. Using frozen whipped topping and frozen lemonade concentrate makes your pie creamy and tart at the same time. It is a perfect combination for a frozen lemonade pie.
Lemonade Filling
8 oz. cream cheese (room temperature)
14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
1 can of pink lemonade concentrate
8 oz. tub Cool Whip
1 lemon, sliced (optional))
Graham Cracker Crust
1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup unsalted butter
How To Make Lemonade Pie
This fast and easy lemon pie takes only a few ingredients and comes together in minutes.
To make the graham cracker crust. Preheat the oven to 325F.
Crush graham crackers in a blender, or better yet, buy them already crushed. Easy peasy. Then there is no need for a blender, electric mixer, or any power appliance.
Mix together the crushed graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter.
Press into a 10″ pie plate. Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
To make the lemonade pie filling. Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl and pour the filling into the pie crust.
Freeze for 4-6 hours. Chill until ready to serve or serve from frozen.
Garnish with sliced lemon. You could also decorate with lemon zest, candied lemon pieces, or candy lemon.
How Long Does a Lemonade Pie Last?
You can keep Frozen Lemonade Pie in the freezer for up to 3 months if wrapped well with plastic wrap and foil. When it is this hard frozen, you will want to let it sit in the refrigerator for some time to thaw slightly, so it is easier to slice and serve.
