Recipe: Lemonade Pie ๐Ÿ‹๐Ÿฅง

Description:

This Lemonade Pie recipe is a delightful creation passed down from my aunt, promising a tantalizing blend of sweet and tangy flavors. Quick and easy to make, it’s a perfect treat for any occasion. Whether topped with cherry pie filling or enjoyed as is, its deliciousness remains unparalleled!

  • Preparation Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Category: Pie
  • Keywords: Dessert, < 30 Mins, Easy

Ingredients:

  • 1 tub (8 ounces) Cool Whip
  • 1 can (6 ounces) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (adjust to taste)
  • 1-2 graham cracker pie crusts

Instructions:

  1. Thaw Ingredients: Begin by allowing the Cool Whip and frozen lemonade concentrate to thaw out completely. This step ensures smoother blending and a creamier texture.

  2. Prepare Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed lemonade concentrate with the sweetened condensed milk. Gradually add fresh lemon juice, stirring gently until well incorporated. The lemon juice adds a zesty kick, so adjust according to your taste preferences. Once combined, fold in the thawed Cool Whip until the mixture becomes fluffy and uniform in texture.

  3. Fill Crusts: Divide the lemonade filling evenly between the graham cracker pie crusts, spreading it out in an even layer. The light, airy texture of the filling contrasts beautifully with the crispness of the crust, creating a harmonious blend of flavors and textures.

  4. Chill: Place the filled pie crusts in the refrigerator and allow them to chill until firm. This step is crucial for setting the filling and ensuring that each slice holds its shape perfectly when served.

  5. Optional Topping: For an extra burst of flavor and visual appeal, consider adding a can of cherry pie filling on top of the chilled pies just before serving. The combination of sweet cherries with the tangy lemonade filling creates a symphony of flavors that will leave your taste buds craving for more.

  6. Serve and Enjoy: Once chilled and set, slice the Lemonade Pies into generous portions and serve them to eager guests or indulge in a slice yourself. Each bite promises a delightful explosion of citrusy sweetness, making it the perfect ending to any meal or a refreshing treat on a warm day.
