Limeade Pie With Graham Nut Crust Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In medium bowl, combine cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press firmly on bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 7 minutes and let cool completely.
• In a medium bowl, add whipped topping and gently fold in condensed milk. Add limeade and zest and gently fold to combine. Do not let the mixture become soupy. Pour mixture into the pie crust and freeze overnight. Garnish with candied lime peels when ready to serve.

Steps:

• Mix limeade (may substitute lemonade concentrate) and sweetened condensed milk in a large bowl. Fold in nondairy whipped topping. Pour filling into graham cracker crust. Chill 2 to 3 hours.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine milk and juice; let stand for a few minutes. Stir in whipped topping. Add food coloring if desired. Spoon into crust. Chill until firm. Garnish with whipped topping and mint if desired.

Steps:

• To make crust: Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Place pecans in single layer on a rimmed baking sheet, and toast until fragrant, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven and cool.
• Place graham crackers in bowl of food processor fitted with metal blade; pulse until fine crumbs form.
• Add sugar, salt and pecans; pulse to combine.
• Add butter and pulse until fine crumbs form.
• Transfer to a rectangular, 13 1/2 by 4 1/4-inch tart pan (or a 10-inch round tart pan) with a removable bottom, and pat evenly onto bottom and up sides.
• Place pan on a baking sheet; bake until crust is golden and fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
• For pie: In bowl of food processor fitted with metal blade, combine cream cheeses and sugar; process until mixture is smooth.
• Add lime zest and juice; pulse several times to combine.
• Transfer filling to prepared graham nut crust; cover with plastic wrap after putting toothpicks throughout; otherwise, plastic wrap will stick.
• Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours or preferably overnight. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Mix the gelatin, half of the sugar and the salt in a saucepan. In another pan, beat the egg yolks well. Add the lime juice and water to the egg yolk mixture. Stir the egg yolk mixture into the gelatin mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, just until the mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat; stir in grated peel.
• Chill, stirring occasionally, until the mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon.
• Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add the remaining sugar, beating until stiff. Fold into the chilled gelatin mixture. Fold in whipped cream (reserve some for topping, if desired). Pour into the baked crust.
• Chill until firm.

Steps:

• Make the crust:
• In a bowl combine well the crumbs, the almonds, the butter, and the sugar, press the mixture onto the bottom and side of a 10-inch pie plate, and bake the shell in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 10 minutes, or until it is browned lightly. Let the shell cool on a rack.
• In a large bowl beat the yolks with the condensed milk and stir in the lime juice, a little at a time, stirring to combine the filling well. Spoon the filling into the shell and chill the pie for 1 hour. In a bowl beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt until they hold soft peaks, add the sugar, beating, 1 tablespoon at a time, and beat the meringue until it holds stiff peaks. Spread the meringue over the filling and bake the pie in the middle of a preheated 350°F. oven for 15 minutes, or until the meringue is just golden. Chill the pie for 2 hours.
