Lemonade Pie


It is HOT here today! We all need something cool and refreshing to think about and this is what I am thinking about: EASY AND REFRESHING LEMON ICEBOX PIE. My mom made this all the time for Sister and I. My favorite part was always licking that plastic green bowl that she'd mix it in.

Lemon Icebox Pie

1 graham cracker crust
1 can Eagle Brand milk
1 (12 oz.) container Cool Whip
1 small can frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
yellow food coloring, optional

In a bowl, (preferably a plastic, green bowl) fold the milk, Cool Whip and lemonade together until blended. This is where you would add a few drops of food coloring. Mix well. Pour into graham cracker crust. Lick remaining goodness from plastic, green bowl. Refrigerate until well chilled and set.

I don't add any food coloring, but serve with lemon slices as garnish.

You could also make LIME ICEBOX PIE, but substituting frozen limeade concentrate for the lemon and adding green food coloring.
