CREAM CHEESE LEMONADE PIE

This simple recipe can be served as is in a graham crust or you can dress it up with a strawberry or peach glaze. Either way, a little Cool Whip or whipped cream on top is good.

This pie is great! Quick and easy :o) I did use 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice plus a T. of lemon zest. and a tsp. of vanilla in the filling. If you have the time to make your own crust, Do It! (1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup sugar and 5 T. melted butter. Bake at 350 for 7 – 10 minutes) Also, If you have even more extra time and extra money, make your own whipped topping too! Directions: Place one cup heavy whipping cream and 3 T. confectioner’s sugar in a chilled mixing bowl, beat until stiff peaks form. Spread on top of this delicious pie and enjoy!!

Very simple and good. I covered top with blueberries and went very well. Brought it to a meetup and everyone liked it. Very fluffy.

Super fast and simple. This was mild flavored and although my husband loved it as is, I thought it needed more lemon and more tart. Very good though and this is an easy one to remember without a recipe. Thanks for the winner!

This was another quick and easy treat I frequently indulged in when I was pregnant. I used a shortbread prepared graham pie crust, and neufchatel cream cheese. I upped the amount of lemon juice and added a little bit of grated zest. Finished it off with some “Extra Creamy” whipped topping. Really good! If you use lime juice and a bit of the zest, it makes a really decent Key Lime Pie aswell! Thanks, Jan!
