Easy Lemon Pie

Don't have time to make dessert, but want a sweet ending to a meal? This refreshing and tangy lemon pie is the perfect easy addition to weeknight meals, date nights or as just an afternoon snack. This dessert is easy enough to always have one waiting in the fridge!

1. For the graham cracker crust, crush about 20 graham cracker squares in a food processor or in a plastic storage bag.

2. Melt 1/2 cup of butter. Mix the crushed graham crackers, melted butter and 2 tablespoons sugar.

3. Evenly press mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch round pie pan. Make sure there are no holes in the crust so the lemon mixture doesn't seep through.

4. If possible, refrigerate crust for an hour to set.

5. After crust has set, blend 1 (12 oz.) can of thawed frozen lemonade, 1 (8 oz.) tub of whipped topping and 1 (14 oz.) can of sweetened condensed milk in a large bowl with a hand mixer.

6. Once well blended, spoon mixture into crust and spread evenly.

7. Cover and refrigerate pie for a minimum of 2 hours to let filling set. Enjoy this tart, yet sweet, easy lemon pie!
