My sister gave me this recipe. I am always requested to make this pie whenever we have a pie auction at work. Ingredients:
1 (3 ounce) package lime jell-o gelatin |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 cup boiling water |
1/4 cup frozen limeade concentrate (undiluted) |
2/3 cup cold water |
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (softened) |
1 1/2 ounces whipped topping (such as dreamwhip) |
6 tablespoons butter |
4 cups rice chex (crushed to 1 1/4 cup) |
1/4 cup packed brown sugar |
Directions:
1. Stir gelatin and sugar into boiling water until dissolved. Add Limeade and cold water stirring to dissolve. 2. In large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in about 1/4 cup gelatin mixture one tablespoon at a time until creamy. Slowly add rest of gelatin mixture beating constantly to keep smooth. 3. Chill until very thick (60 - 75 minutes); stir occasionally. 4. Prepare crust while filling is chilling. Melt butter in sauce pan. Butter a 9-inch pie plate. Combine cereal crumbs and brown sugar. Stir into butter. 5. Press mixture evenly into bottom and sides of pie pan. Bake 10 minutes at 350°F and cool. 6. Prepare whipped topping according to package directions omitting vanilla. Stir into thickened gelatin until smooth. Chill until mixture mounds (about 30-40 minutes). 7. Pour into cooled crust. Chill at least 3 hours. 8. Prep time and cook time does not include chill time. |
