Lemonade Pie is a refreshing and full of creamy lemon flavor no-bake dessert! This icebox pie takes 15 minutes to mix together and the 6 simple ingredients are piled it into a premade crust, and then ready for the refrigerator or freezer!
This delicious no-bake dessert tastes like sipping on a summer beverage but is served as a summer dessert that you eat with a fork.
Lemon Pie With Frozen Lemonade
This no-bake Lemonade Pie recipe can be made in minutes using cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, frozen lemonade, and pudding powder to form its fluffy filling and then piling it into a crunchy graham cracker crust.
Sweet and tangy with a silky texture, this easy frozen lemonade pie is perfect to enjoy poolside or as a light dessert after dinner.
I love making this lemonade pie with pudding mix because it thickens the cream cheese lemonade pie filling and gives your frozen lemon pie even more lemony flavor.
So grab a ready-made crust at the grocery and get ready to taste the best bite of a refreshing beverage that tastes cool and creamy from the fridge or icy cold from the freezer.

I like this recipe, but I don’t love it! It’s not quite as lemony as my original lemon ice box pie that my family loves and that I loved as a little girl growing up! But the real test will be when my son eats a slice. He loves lemon anything!! So every holiday I make two of my lemon ice box pies. One for him to eat and maybe share with everyone and one for him to take home and eat when the kids are in bed!!
I will make it for Thanksgiving
