Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cups Vanilla ice cream, softened
- 6 ounces Frozen pink lemonade concentrate, thawed
- 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
- 1 cup Fresh strawberries (optional, for garnish)
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the crust: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to pack it down tightly. Place the crust in the freezer to set while you prepare the filling.
In another mixing bowl, combine the softened vanilla ice cream and thawed pink lemonade concentrate. Stir until well combined and smooth.
Remove the pie crust from the freezer and pour the pink lemonade ice cream mixture into the crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or until the filling is firm.
When ready to serve, remove the pie from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to soften slightly.
Optionally top with whipped cream, fresh strawberries, and lemon zest for extra color and flavor.
Slice and serve immediately. Store any uneaten portions in the freezer, covered tightly with plastic wrap.
