Oh So Yummy Frozen Key Lime Pie

Here's a favorite dessert for spring and summer!  Note that instead of limeade you can use lemonade, pink lemonade, pina colada mix, or orange juice.  (the orange juice version with a chocolate crust is a favorite too!)


  • 2  (9 inch) prepared shortbread, graham cracker or oreo crumb crusts
  • 1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened
  • 1 (6 ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Bake crust in oven for 8 to 10 minutes until light brown. Allow to cool.
  3. In a large bowl, mix until creamy the ice cream, limeade and whipped topping. Spread mixture into pie crust, then place in freezer. Serve pie after it has set, about 30 minutes.
Notes:  You can use the crust without baking if you wish.  You can make a frozen lemon pie by substituting frozen lemonade concentrate for the limeade concentrate.  Garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and a slice of lime (or lemon).
