Description
All your favorite lemonade flavors combine in this chilly, creamy Frozen Lemonade Pie for the summer’s most refreshing dessert.
Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup thawed frozen lemonade concentrate
- 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping (such as Cool Whip) thawed
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest, divided
- 1 (9-inch) graham cracker crust (store-bought or homemade)
Optional toppings:
- Whipped topping
- Lemon slices
Instructions
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add the thawed frozen lemonade concentrate and beat until fully combined and smooth.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping until the filling is light, fluffy, and evenly combined. Fold in 1 teaspoon of the lemon zest.
- Spoon the filling into the graham cracker crust and spread it into an even layer, smoothing the top.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1 teaspoon lemon zest over the top of the pie.
- Cover the pie with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours, or overnight, until firm.
- When ready to serve, slice and serve frozen, or let the pie sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes for a slightly softer, creamier texture. Top each slice with whipped topping and a lemon slice, if desired.
Notes
After slicing and serving, return any leftovers to the freezer to keep the pie firm. If left out too long, the filling will soften quickly.
