Frozen Margarita Cream Pie
Ingredients
  • 1 cup finely crushed pretzels
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/3 cup margarine, melted
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/3 cup frozen limeade concentrate, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons tequila
  • 1 tablespoon orange liqueur
  • 3 drops green food coloring, or as needed
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 lime, sliced
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (or 190 degrees Celsius for a more precise measurement).
2
Mix together pretzels and sugar in a bowl until they are well combined; then add margarine and continue stirring until the mixture is smooth and evenly incorporated.
3
Press the pretzel-sugar-margarine mixture into a 9-inch pie plate, making sure it covers the entire bottom and sides of the dish.
4
Bake the crust in your preheated oven for about 5 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned.
5
Allow the crust to cool completely on a wire rack before moving on to the next step.
6
Mix together sweetened condensed milk, limeade concentrate, tequila, orange liqueur, and green food coloring in a large bowl until well combined.
7
Beat the cream in a glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until it forms soft, fluffy peaks.
8
Hold the beater or whisk vertically and observe: whipped cream should form soft mounds that are slightly rounded rather than sharp peaks.
9
Fold the whipped cream into the sweetened condensed milk mixture until it is fully incorporated and smooth.
10
Spoon the filling into the cooled pie crust, making sure to cover the entire surface.
11
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer until it is firm, about 4 hours.
12
Remove the pie from the freezer and let it stand at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.
13
Garnish your pie with lime slices and serve immediately.
