Crust
Filling
- 3½ oz Cream Cheese, softened (100g)
- 10½ oz Sweetened Condensed Milk (300g) (¾ of a 14oz can)
- 9 fl oz Frozen Lemonade Concentrate, thawed (255mL) (homemade recipe in post)
- ½ cup Heavy Whipping Cream, cold (118mL) (or 1 8oz tub of Cool Whip)
- Whip Cream Cheese: In the bowl of a stand mixer, whip the cream cheese until it becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Add Sweetened Condensed Milk: Add the sweetened condensed milk to the whipped cream cheese and continue whipping until the mixture is uniform and free of any cream cheese chunks.
- Incorporate Lemonade Concentrate: With the mixer running on low, slowly pour in the thawed frozen lemonade concentrate, blending until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Optional Straining: For an extra-smooth filling, pass the mixture through a fine mesh sieve into a large mixing bowl, removing any solids or lumps.
- Whip Heavy Cream: In a separate clean bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form, providing lightness to the filling.
- Fold in Whipped Cream: Gently fold the whipped heavy cream into the lemonade mixture, taking care to keep the mixture light and airy without deflating it.
- Fill Crust: Carefully pour the prepared pie filling into the graham cracker crust, spreading evenly.
- Freeze the Pie: Transfer the pie to the freezer and chill for 6 to 12 hours until fully set and firm.
- Serve: Once frozen, decorate as desired, slice, and serve chilled for a refreshing dessert.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for smooth whipping.
- Thaw the frozen lemonade concentrate completely before mixing to avoid lumps.
- If preferred, you can substitute heavy whipping cream with Cool Whip for convenience.
- Allow sufficient freezing time to ensure the pie is fully set before slicing.
- This pie is best served cold directly from the freezer; let it sit a few minutes at room temperature if too firm.
