Frozen Lemonade Pie

It does not get much easier!




















I went home with my boyfriend for the fourth of July to visit his family. His parents have a fourth of July Party every year in which his mom serves up a feast and they end the night with a fireworks show. To do our part, my boyfriend and I made a Frozen Lemonade Pie which we saw on Down Home with the Neely's. We served the pie at the party and it was a big hit. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures before serving the pie so the pictures do not do the pie justice. This is definitely going to be a go to summer dessert in out house.

Frozen Lemonade Pie


2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup sugar
7 tablespoons butter, melted
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, chilled
1 (12 ounce) container whipped topping, thawed
1 (6 fluid ounce) can frozen lemonade concentrate, keep frozen

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

In medium bowl, combine cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup of sugar, and the melted butter. Press firmly on bottom and up sides of pie plate. Bake for 7 minutes and let cool completely.

In a medium bowl, add chilled sweetened condensed milk and whipped topping and fold gently. Add frozen lemonade and continue to gently fold. Do not let the mixture become soupy. Pour mixture into the pie crust and freeze overnight. Garnish with lemon peel.

I'm so glad someone made this! I was watching that episode of the Neelys but had to step away before they made the pie. Just the name "Frozen Lemonade Pie" got me really interested. I'm glad it worked so well for you - I definitely want to give it a try
