Friend Friday: A Summer Recipe – Pink Lemonade Pie

I had a difficult time picking a recipe to make (showcase) for this. In the end I decided on a recipe that anyone can make – it requires no skill! And I adore this…and it’s so simple and so good! The ingredients have been around a long time and are products of Kraft so I’m inclined to believe it’s a company recipe. I dunno though. Either way I have some of this sitting in my freezer right now for a BBQ on Sunday. If it makes it that long. 😀

(1) 12 oz can of frozen pink lemonade “juice” concentrate – thawed
(1) 8 oz. carton of Cool Whip, or the same amount using real whipped cream if you prefer
(1) 14 oz. can condensed milk
2 graham cracker or shortbread crumb crusts, ready made or make your own

Mix in a large bowl the liquid “juice”, and condensed milk. Fold in the Cool Whip until the mixture is smooth and consistent.

Spoon into the pre-made crusts and freeze. I suggest at least a few hours but it’s better if frozen overnight.

It will never harden all the way – that’s the beauty of it. And it will melt (though rather slowly). So don’t make this unless you have a freezer to store it in until serving time. And personally I think it tastes better with the shortbread crust than the graham cracker, but try whatever works for you. Enjoy!
