Lemon Ice Box Pie (Sugar Free or Not) Make it Either Way

My mom introduced me to this pie when I was a teenager still living at home. She made the pie with sugar free ingredients and it was delicious. I still make it and I use the regular pudding mix. It tastes about the same to me. I'm just used to buying the regular pudding mix. It contains crytal light drink mix and that stuff is tart. It makes an excellent lemon pie. It's very light textured, sweet, and tart. Quite refreshing and my family loves, loves, loves it. For the sugar free version just substitute sugar free pudding and sugar free whipped topping.
Ingredients:
2 Large Pre-baked pie crusts
2 small packs of vanilla instant pudding mix
3 1/3 cups cold milk
1 envelope crystal light drink mix (the kind that makes 2 qts)
16 once whipped topping (half to mix in the pudding and half for the topping)

My mother used to eat lemons like the rest of us eat oranges. So needless to say, her lemon meringue pies were super sour. Still not sour enough for her. As I kid, I couldn't eat it. But as an adult, I don't make them like that and I love them. This has my mouth watering.

Looks so good. When i was younger i didn't care much for lemon flavored desserts but now I'm older I seem to not get enough 😅

Funny hows things change. When Mr. E. was younger he could not stand okra and now he can't get enough of it.😄

I imagine you could use a graham cracker crust also. No baking and heating up the kitchen.

[@LouisianaHomestead-vc5nx]

Yes, you could also use vanilla waffers. Sometimes my mom uses vanillla waffers for this dessert.
