Frozen Strawberry Pie

[Dee]

Heres my famous recipe for Frozen Strawberry Pie:

 

 

2-1/2 cups flaked coconut, toasted

1/3 cup margarine, melted

1 (3-ounce) package cream cheese, melted

1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

2-1/2 cups (fresh or thawed frozen) unsweetened strawberries,

mashed (about 1-1/2 cups)

3 tablespoons lemon juice from concentrate

1 cup whipping cream, whipped

Additional strawberries

 

 

In a large bowl combine the coconut and melted margarine.

 

 

Press firmly on bottom and sides to rim of a 9-inch pie plate.

 

 

In a large bowl, beat the cheese until fluffy. Gradually beat in sweetened

condensed milk (be sure it is not evaporated milk) until smooth.

Stir in mashed strawberries and lemon juice. Fold in the whipping cream.

 

 

Pour the mixture into prepared pie crust. The mixture should mound slightly.

Freeze for 4 hours, or until firm.

Before serving, top with fresh strawberries, if desired.

Return the leftovers back to the freezer.
