Newlywed Recipe Corner: "Angela's Delightfully Mallow Lemon Ice Box Pie"

 With the hot weather here in northern New York this week and the searing 100-plus temps I am hearing about from loved ones back home in Oklahoma, this week I am sharing one of my favorite warm weather, no-bake recipes. I have long been a fan of lemon ice box pie but the extraordinary amount of sugar and calories in just one slice sent me on a mission to create a light, easy and lower sugar version of this lemony delight I have enjoyed since childhood. I hope you will find this pie to be a cool treat on a summer day!


“Angela’s Delightfully Mallow Lemon Ice Box Pie”

1 1/2 cups skim milk

1 (4-serving size) package Jell-O sugar free instant lemon pudding

1 8 oz. tub sugar free Cool-Whip, thawed

3/4 cup miniature marshmallows

1 (8 oz.) reduced fat graham cracker pie crust


In large mixing bowl, combine milk and pudding mix. Stir with wire whisk at least 1 minute or until pudding consistency. Add whipped topping to mixture, stirring with wire whisk until smooth. Add marshmallows and stir well. Pour mixture into pie crust. Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving. Yield: 6 slices. Enjoy!

  3. Yummy - we traveled to the east coast from California July 11 - 26 and discovered a heat and humidity that we never knew existed... Glad to be home with our nice cool ocean breezes.
