I was born and raised in Louisiana. As a result, cooking good southern comfort food is second nature to me. This is an easy southern Lemon Icebox Pie recipe that I've loved since I was a little girl. You won't be disappointed. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) container whipped cream (cool whip) |
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |
1/2 cup lemon juice (can be fresh or bottled) |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 large prepared graham cracker crust |
Directions:
1. Combine the whip cream, cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Mix on high speed until SMOOTH. Taste and add more lemon juice to your liking.
2. Pour into crust and refrigerate overnight.
3. NOTE: Keebler is the only brand I have seen that serves the large graham cracker crust. It will have the note '2 extra servings' on the label.
4. NOTE: If you do not have enough time to let the cream cheese get to room temperature, I sometimes will microwave it 10 seconds at a time until it is fairly soft.
