Frozen Lemonade Pie πŸ‹

Frozen Lemonade Pie :lemon:

Active Time: 30 mins
Total Time: 4 hrs 30 mins
Servings: 8

Ingredients:

2 cups graham cracker crumbs (from about 15 graham cracker sheets)

1/2 cup butter, melted

1/3 cup packed light brown sugar

1 (8-oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened

1 (14-oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

1 (12-oz.) can frozen lemonade concentrate (such as Minute Maid), thawed

1 Tbsp. grated lemon zest (from 2 large lemons), plus more for garnish

1/4 tsp. kosher salt

1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, divided

2 Tbsp. powdered sugar

Directions:

Make and freeze crust:

Coat a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate with cooking spray. Stir together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and brown sugar in a medium bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom and up sides of the prepared pie plate. Freeze until firm, about 15 minutes.

Beat cream cheese:

Meanwhile, beat cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.

Whip heavy cream:

Beat 1/2 cup of the heavy cream in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until medium peaks form, about 2 minutes. Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.

Add pie filling to crust, and freeze:

Spoon mixture into prepared crust, spreading evenly. Freeze, uncovered, until firm, about 4 hours or up to 12 hours. Remove from freezer about 10 minutes before serving.

Add whipped cream:

Beat powdered sugar and remaining 1 cup heavy cream in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes. Top pie with whipped cream; garnish with additional lemon zest. Serve immediately. Store leftovers, covered, in the freezer for up to 1 week.
