What is a freezer pie?
A freezer pie, or Ice Box Pie is a delicious classic southern dessert that was named after the ice box that these pies were kept cool in. These Ice Box Pie were quick and easy to make, required no cooking in the heat of summer, and could be stored in the icebox until it was served. … Iceboxes date back to the 1830s.
A delicious lemon dessert
I have always loved lemons. Lemonade, lemon meringue, lemon bars, lemon in my tea, you get the idea. Turns out I love lemons in freezer pie form as well!! Its just such a light and refreshing flavor. A summer favorite that I’ll cling to year round.

When it’s too hot to cook, use your freezer instead of your oven!

Top Tips
- Store in the freezer and bring out just before serving. The only drawback to this lemonade pie is how quickly it seemed to melt. Which isn’t that big of a drawback. Just means you have to eat it faster!
- Save time and stay ahead of the game by making a few pies at once. Perfect for party prep!
- Return any leftover pie to the freezer.
- Top with slices of lemon and strawberries.

Nutrition Information
Do you add water to the lemonade concentrate or just use the concentrate as is?
Leave the concentrate as is :)
I just wondered how long you can leave it in the freezer, I ended up with two for some reason and we won’t go through two tonight. Will it keep for awhile?
It should be fine for at least a month if properly stored in the freezer. You just want to avoid freezer burn. Hope you love it!
Easy to make pie that sounds and looks yummy.
This pie looks absolutely amazing! I think it would go well during any season. I’m allergic to a few food items so the only thing I’d change is the crust. I would use an almond crust like my mom uses for her cherry cream cheese pie.
Love an almond crust! Hope you love the recipe :)
Hello, can I replace the lemonade can with natural lemonade? We don’t have that product in my area. Thanks!
Yes you should be able to! It should work just fine. Hope you love it!!
this is a yummy pie for summer. I love a sweet tart fruit pie. But please this will make 2 so get 2 crusts. First time I made it I put the other half in serving size dishes and put them in the freezer, too yum!
What size tub of coolwhip do you use?
Also, how big is the can of sweetened condensed milk?
Hey EL! I used a 8 ounce tub of cool whip and a 14 ounce can of sweetened condensed milk. I saw your earlier comment and I’m not familiar with Rich’s whip but I’m assuming you could probably use the same amount and it would most likely work; if it’s similar to cool whip. Hope that helps! Thanks so much for stopping by!
This looks yum!
How big is “one can sweetened condensed milk”?
Also, can I use frozen Rich’s whip instead of cool whip? How much would I need?
Thanks!
Hello,
I just made this recipe for Father’s Day. The flavors were nice and tart and fresh, the colors beautiful. My only problem was that the lemonade layer just would not set up. I had it in the freezer for over 12 hours so that wasn’t the problem. It only set up enough to the consistency of pudding. Maybe there’s something that could be added to the lemon layer to help harden it?
That’s so odd, I didn’t have that problem at all! I’ll have to play around with it and see what I can do to thicken the layer. I don’t want that happening, that’s for sure!! Thanks for letting me know, I really appreciate it!
try adding cream cheese or lemon jello
Such a good idea!Thank you James!
I’m making this for my nieces birthday this week. Can you use any flavor frozen Lemonade?
