Description

It took some experimenting, but I've finally come up with the perfect lime pie ... refreshing and easy. The pretzel crust adds an extra special touch and every time I serve it, I get rave reviews! When ready to serve, garnish each slice with a dollop of whipped topping and a lime slice.

Ingredients

1 ¼ cups crushed pretzels
¼ cup white sugar
½ cup melted butter
1 (6 ounce) can frozen limeade concentrate
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon grated lime peel
1 (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
4 drops green food coloring

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
2. To Make Crust: In a medium bowl, combine pretzels, sugar and butter. Press into a lightly greased 9 inch pie pan.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 5 minutes. Let cool completely.
4. To Make Filling: In a large bowl, combine limeade and condensed milk. Whisk in pudding mix. Allow mixture to set for 5 minutes. Stir in lime peel, then fold in whipped topping. Stir in green food coloring if desired.
5. Pour mixture into cooled pie crust. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
