Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.75 cup Frozen pink lemonade concentrate, thawed
- 2 drops Red food coloring (optional)
- 1 cup Whipped cream, for topping (optional)
- 4 slices Lemon slices, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Prepare the crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and have the texture of wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Use the back of a spoon or a measuring cup to press it down firmly. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the softened cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the pink lemonade concentrate to the cream cheese mixture and beat until fully incorporated. If you’d like a more vibrant hue, add 1-2 drops of red food coloring and mix until the color is evenly distributed.
Pour the filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set and firm.
Once set, slice and serve. If desired, top each slice with whipped cream and garnish with a lemon slice for a decorative touch.
