Frozen Lemonade Pie...

My recipe came from Abby in Arkansas

Just in time for these Dog Days of Summer...
This week I made one of our most favorite summertime treats -- Frozen Lemonade Pie.  It's chock full of sugar, but hey, it's a treat after all!  It's easy-to-make but looks like you fussed.  A refreshing dessert.   I hope you enjoy it.

Frozen Lemonade Pie
Graham Cracker Crust
2 c. graham cracker crumbs
2 T. sugar
7 T. butter, melted
Combine and press into greased pie plate. (I do not bake it)
You could also use a pre-made Keebler crust from the store.

Lemonade Filling
1 6 oz. frozen can of lemonade (keep frozen)
1 large Cool Whip
1 can sweetened condensed milk.
Fold ingredients gently together and pour into crust.  Do not allow ingredients to get soupy.  I sometimes slice lemons very thin with a mandolin and make lemon twists to lay on top for garnish.  You could also use candied lemon for garnish.
Freeze overnight.

  1. Hi Jody-friend! Yummy! I do love lemonade and this pie has such simple ingredients! I love your attitude about food. You don't fuss, you just work hard and enjoy your treats. Very few people have such a sensible stance. YOU are the BEST and I'm so glad you are my friend! (for many reasons!)
