The salty crust will remind you of the traditional salted rim of a margarita glass. A creamy lime-and-tequila filling completes this refreshing, tangy-sweet frozen pie. Ingredients:
1 cup finely crushed pretzel |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/3 cup margarine or 1/3 cup butter, melted |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |
1/3 cup frozen limeade concentrate, thawed |
1 -2 tablespoon tequila |
1 tablespoon orange liqueur |
3 drops green food coloring (optional) |
1 cup whipping cream |
lime slice (optional) |
Directions:
1. FOR CRUST: Stir together crushed pretzels and sugar. Stir in melted margarine or butter. Spread mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie plate. Press onto bottom and sides to form a firm, even crust. Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for 5 minutes or till edge is lightly browned. Cool on a rack.
2. FOR FILLING: In a large mixing bowl combine sweetened condensed milk, limeade concentrate, tequila, orange liqueur, and, if desired, food coloring. In a medium mixing bowl beat whipping cream till soft peaks form; fold into tequila mixture. Spoon filling into crust. Cover and freeze about 4 hours, or till firm. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. If desired, garnish with lime slices.
