Categories     Other Desserts

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 6

56 ritz crackers, crushed
1/2 c butter or margarine, melted
1/4 c powdered sugar
2 pkg dream whip, prepared according to directions or use small container of cool-whip topping
1 can(s) eagle brand sweet and condensed milk, refrigerated
1 can(s) 6oz. frozen pink lemonade concentrate

Steps:

  • 1. Mix the crackers, butter and powdered sugar together and mix well. Put 1/2 crumb mixture into a 9x9 inch pan.
  • 2. Beat the Eagle Brand milk, and the lemonade mixture until it is fluffy, then fold in prepared dream whip, (can use small container of cool-whip to save time).
  • 3. Pour on top of the crumb mixture, and add the other 1/2 crumbs on top. Freeze... Enjoy

Tips:

  • Choose the right lemons. Meyer lemons are sweeter and less acidic than regular lemons, making them a good choice for lemonade dessert. If you can't find Meyer lemons, you can use regular lemons, but you may need to add more sugar to taste.
  • Use fresh lemon juice. Bottled lemon juice can be used in a pinch, but fresh lemon juice will give your dessert a brighter, more flavorful taste.
  • Chill your ingredients before using them. This will help your dessert set up more quickly and smoothly.
  • Don't overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will make your dessert tough and rubbery. Beat them just until they reach stiff peaks.
  • Bake your dessert in a water bath. This will help prevent the top of the dessert from browning too much and will also help keep it moist.
  • Serve your dessert chilled. Lemonade dessert is best served chilled, so be sure to refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

Lemonade dessert is a light and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy weeknights or weekend gatherings. With its bright citrus flavor and creamy texture, lemonade dessert is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
