Pink Lemonade Pie

Nothing says summer to me like Pink Lemonade Pie!  It’s tart, refreshing and such a sweet, light dessert.  This recipe is from my sister-in-law but I’ve seen several variations out there.  We love it so much that we’re on our second one in two weeks.  :)

Ingredients:

-1 graham cracker crust (can use premade from the store but my recipe is below if you prefer)

-1 can sweetened condensed milk

-1 small can pink lemonade, thawed (if you can’t find a small one, use half of the large one)

-1/2 carton Cool Whip

Directions:

1.  Mix milk, lemonade, and Cool Whip until well combined.  Pour into prepared crust.  Refrigerate until set.

Graham Cracker Crust:

-1/3 cup butter, melted

-1/4 cup sugar

-1 1/4 cups finely crushed graham crackers (roughly one sleeve of crackers)

Directions – Melt butter, stir in sugar.  Add crushed crackers; toss to mix well.  Spread in pie plate and push down to set.  Cook 4-5 minutes in a preheated 375 degree oven.  Cool.
