Overview:

"Let's face it - if you love lemon, sometimes you just don't want to "bake" your lemon pie, and might like a nice 'n fast old fashioned lemon icebox pie instead. This pie isn't just low carb, it's protein-packed, too. No need to pre-bake the easy crust either.

If you like a cookie dough flavor, you can 86' the baking. Life is good, so enjoy!" -Brenda

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup Carb Counters™ Bakesquick™ - 1LB
1 Packed Cup Carb Counters™ Gluten Free Whip It Up™ Instant Dessert Maker (Vanilla)
1 Stick Unsalted butter, 1/2 cup (Melted)
1/2 Cup Lemon juice (Bottled is fine)
1 - 1/4 Cup Water
Low carb sweetener (Equal to 1 tablespoon of sugar)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 350°.

For Pie Crust:

In a small bowl, combine Bakesquick™, 1/4 cup packed Whip it Up™, and the melted butter. Stir with a fork, and spread in the bottom of a 9" pie pan. With a piece of plastic wrap, press the crust to cover bottom and sides of the pie pan.

Set crust aside without baking for a cookie-dough flavored pie crust, or for a vanilla cookie-flavored crust, bake at 375° for 8-10 minutes until golden.

Cook's Tip: You can add 1/4 cup pasteurized Egg Beater™ type eggs for extra creaminess and color if desired. Or you can stir in a few drops of yellow food coloring for color.
