Strawberry Lemonade Icebox Pie
Description
This pie begins with a firm graham cracker crust formed from crumbs and melted butter, providing a crispy base. The filling blends lemonade concentrate with sweetened condensed milk, creating a tart yet sweet custard-like mixture. Whipped heavy cream, mixed with powdered sugar, is folded into this base to add lightness and creaminess.
The strawberry puree, made from fresh hulled strawberries, honey, and water, is swirled into the filling in dollops, creating attractive ribbons of fruit throughout the pie. After assembling, the pie is frozen for at least six hours, allowing it to set into a firm, icebox-style dessert with a smooth texture and bright flavor.
Strawberry Lemonade Icebox Pie is best served chilled directly from the freezer and holds well as leftovers when stored frozen. This refreshing dessert pairs nicely with casual meals during spring and summer months, offering a balance of creamy sweetness and fruity tartness.
Ingredients
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 2/3 cup lemonade concentrate frozen
- 1 sweetened condensed milk 14oz can
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 3 Tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 cup strawberries hulled
- 3 Tbsp honey
- 1 Tbsp water
Instructions
- Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together. Press crust evenly into a 9" pie dish. Set aside.
- With a blender or food processor, blend strawberries, honey, and water until pureed. Set aside.
- Mix lemonade concentrate with sweetened condensed milk until combined. Set aside.
- With a mixer, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add in powdered sugar, and whip until it stiffens into the consistency of whipped cream. Gently fold whipped cream into lemonade mixture.
- Pour half of the strawberry puree on the bottom of the crust. Top with lemonade filling, smoothing evenly in the pie crust. Pour the remaining puree in small (evenly spaced) dollops on top of the lemonade filling. With a toothpick, knife, or cake tester, swirl the puree into the lemonade filling.
- Freeze pie for at least 6 hours before serving. Leftovers should be stored in the freezer.
- Enjoy!
