My mama and my daddy always made it (without any eggs.) It was simply the juice of three (3) lemons, 1 can of Eagle Brand milk and the crust was made with crushed vanilla wafers, sugar and butter (and vanilla wafers all around the edge for decoration, with a layer of whipped cream or Cool Whip on top of the lemony mixture. FABULOUS - YUMMY- a family favorite!
I grew up with Lemon Ice Box Pie and have never gotten tired of it. This is the best pie ever. In high school I made this for my Home Ec class and everyone loved it. If you're reading this and have never tried this yummy, easy to create pie, go for it. You won't know what you're missing until you take your first bite. Then it's bliss on the tongue.
Loved this recipe. My mother used to make a similar dessert. I didn’t have a crust, so I mixed half a cup of fresh lemon juice with a can of SCM, then added 2 cups of frozen blueberries and buzzed it all up the food processor and stuck it in the freezer. My ice cream for the next week, yummm!
I make my pie just like this, just like my Mama did. But, I put meringue on top and brown it, looks so pretty and tastes sooooo good! Also I have always used the raw egg yolks in the pie and the whites for the meringue. I’m 74 and have been eating this way all my life, never had a problem.
I've made this pie for more than 45 years. I use 6 egg yolks to help it set up thicker and bake it at 350-degrees for 12 - 15 minutes. Then, I chill it completely before cutting. It is soooooo good! We actually prefer it with Key Lime juice (bottled is fine!), but lemon juice is good too. By the way, I use the egg whites to make meringues, which are addictive.
Yes I did the cream cheese and cooked 8 min, yum, plus I just found another recipe that uses a soda cracker crust so I'm now making a second pie your way!
@@green-eyedlady5354 I did but I don't think you would have too if you didn't want to. As I've seen a lot of other recipes where they choose not to add the eggs.
This video put a smile on my face, and caused a few tears to be shed. Not for my Mom, but Grandma.. This was one of her quick, go to desserts. Thanks for sharing. Peace
When I was a Kid, my Grandma, used to make these, for our Christmas, at her house. She made a homemade crust, out of Vanilla Wafers, and added Meringue on top. I learned how to make them, and they are still a family tradition, at Christmas time.
If you use whole eggs, then lemon juice, the lemon juice ‘cooks’ the egg. Then add the condensed milk. This will also help the pie to set quicker. Also, turn your lemon with juice side toward the pointed press. And, you’re right. Who doesn’t love lemon icebox pie.
I love this pie. My daddy used to make it and he used eggs as well. I remember asking my mom one time if you should use raw eggs in a pie and she said the lemon juice "cooked" them. Lol. But Daddy always put a layer of whipped cream over the top. This was my birthday dessert request for many years growing up.
Been making this pie just like you but with 2 egg yolks just like my Moma. We used the 2 leftover egg whites to make meringue with cream of tartar and sugar. Best lemon pie.🍋🙂 Thank you for sharing a wonderful easy pie recipe.
Absolutely delicious! I tried 3 similar recipes this week and this one was by FAR the best. It tasted just like my grandma made. Did a little research and I think it's ridiculous to worry about the egg yolks. And I really think , after trying 3 lemon icebox pies this week, that the 3 egg yolks made the difference. I also tried one w cream cheese and I think you could easily add / substitute here, but the non cream cheese one was the more refreshing. Especially if it's hot out.
I've used this recipe and actually baked it for about 30 mins @ 350° and it comes out like a cheese cake texture.. I cool and chill it for a few hours and before serving I spread cool whip over the entire pie.. then place the lemons on top for decorations 😊..its so yummy
I am SO glad I saw your video. It brings back memories of the best pie my mother ever made. The only difference was she did bake it with an egg white meringue topping that got nice and golden brown. I will definitely try this weekend 🙏🏽💐💐❤️
Another yummy in my tummy! I’m going to make this pie, in remembrance of my mom. She loved lemon pie, cake, ice cream; anything lemon! What a tart pie, made by a Sweet lady! Love and prayers you guys ❤️🙏🌈😇😘🙏
I love everything made with lemons! I'm making this for my family and co workers. We do a big spread during the holidays and bring in all kinds of snacks and goodies. Thanks for sharing! 😃
This brought back memories from the early 60's. I used to make this pie but my recipe called for the juice of 3 lemons (our lemons were smaller back then) one can of sweetened condensed milk and I 20 oz. can of well drained crushed pineapple. This would fill that crust just fine. Refrigerate until set. Makes a wonderful summer pie, refreshing and no oven needed. Thanks for sharing this recipe. Have a Blessed day.
8oz cream cheese , 1/2 c lemon juice and 1 can of sweetened condensed milk. And then ta da finished. Let the cream cheese rest at room temperature before mixing with other ingredients.
Replace the Lemons with Limes, take out the yolks and then it is key lime pie. Also add about 1/2 teaspoon of some lime zest, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla to it.
I've recently discovered Key Lime pie... OMG. Why did I not try it sooner??? And now I have this easy recipe to try. 😋 I can hardly wait. 😁 But wait...there's that New Year's resolution I made. 😔
There is a pandemic going on! All diets are off! Pie is good for challenging times like this! yes I'm going to make this tomorrow and worry about my weight later 😉
It is so nice to see you make the old fashioned lemon pies my mother used to make them all the time and she taught me in my sister how to make them we used to use the egg white and fluff it up real fluffy I love spread it on the top and then bake it in the oven just until the top get lightly brown sit it out to cool and then refrigerate it that's how we did ours I haven't seen anyone make a homemade lemon pie and years it's nice to see you do this thanks for sharing just saying
I add about a 1/2 teaspoon of lemon zest to the lemon juice. Next, I mix together the eagle brand milk with the lemon juice and THEN add in the egg yolks. When I added the eggs first, I always got curdled egg bits. I use a cup of lemon juice and I put a very sweet meringue on top. I love the combination of the really sour with the really sweet. Making my own buttery graham cracker crust really puts this pie over the top!
My family has made this for years! We use a Graham cracker crust, then mix 8oz softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup lemon juice and 1 can condensed milk. Mix well and pour into crust. Chill. We have them at every holiday and any other time we can during the year. Lol
And yolks raw are actually more dangerous than the whites unless you use heat. This is why Meringue is safe. But yes the acid in the lemon is enough to make them safe.
Love your CUTCO knives and pie server/knife, they are the best, I use mine numerous times per day, they do every job.!!! And now you, you did an excellent job, this is my first time to your channel…. I like your cooking because you cook like me and that olden days type of cook….👍👍👍👍👍
This is exactly how my ex fiancé mother may she Rest In Peace taught me how to make lemon pie I haven’t made it in so long I forgot the steps thanks for making and sharing your video
You're from Alabama like me , I gonna try your way, I hope it comes out right im not a very good cook, sometimes I do make a mean hamburger helper tho lol
S for sharing. My mom used to make it like that but I’m the last few years (she’s 92) has been using cool whip. I prefer the old way like your Mam did. I really appreciate unlocking the mystery for me.
ok, about 45 yrs ago i got a very similar recipe from my mother, and she had gotten it from a can of eagle brand. even people who don't like lemon pie have told me that they absolutely love this one, so here it is. mix: 2 cans eagle brand 10 T lemon juice 4 egg yokes pour into: large graham cracker crust whip: 4 egg whites with sugar to taste until it makes stiff peaks scoop, spread, and make peaks on top of pie bake until egg whites begin to brown chill in fridge this pie tastes much, much, much better with the topping on it!
Our family makes something very similas. It calls for same amt of lemon juice & Sweetened condensed milk. We add shredded pineapple, crushed pecans, cool whip. Millionaire Pie was the lightest coolest icebox pie that really was worth a Million bucks😊
I learned the lazy lazy 3 ingredient version of this & it Rocks everytime, small container cool whip, 10 oz sweet condensed milk & 4 1/2 oz lemon juice all combined & poured into a graham cracker crust, put in freezer 4 hours, unbelievably good.
I’m laughing at all the lemon squeezer and egg comments. Honey, you could of put those lemons in backwards, forwards or upside down...I wouldn’t of know the difference (lol) and as for egg yolks...lawd have mercy y’all, with all the chemicals and artificial stuff in food today these yolks the least of your worries. Thank you for this recipe and as a full time student on a budget this is so good and easy 💛💛 Merry Christmas
Nice recipe. I am very sensitive to eggs and milk so I figured out my own recipe for lemon pie. It was delicious too. I substitute eggs with sour cream and I also use small box lemon jello powder I did use sweet condensed milk only one can. One lemon. I baked only 8 min. I used non diary topping.
Oh my Lord, I used to make these pies, but had COMPLETELY forgotten about it. I'm going to the grocery for the ingredient's tomorrow, a BIG thank you !!!!!
Recipe Note: prepare the recipe as shown. Also prepare an envelope or sheet of unflavored gelatin (as directed on the box). Mix both together and then chill the minimum of the 3-4 hours. Pie cutting and firmness is unbelievable 😎🤗🤗😎
Gelatin would make it too much like a Lemon Meringue Pie - Not adding gelatin is what separates Lemon Ice Box Pie from that. That's why I prefer Lemon Ice Box Pie.
@Jennifer Trotter - Thank you for your Reply, I appreciate it. But, gel is Still what separates Lemon Ice Box Pie from Lemon Meringue Pie - & why I never order a piece of Lemon Meringue Pie when it's offered in an eatery - it's too gelatinous. I want it soft - & it's never offered anywhere but someone's home. -
I used to have a copy of the fried green tomato cookbook and it had a lemon icebox pie in it but it called for a frozen lemonade concentrate, cream cheese, eagle brand and cool whip. The crust called for crushed vanilla wafers. I messed the crust up by putting too much butter in it and couldn't cut through it to save my soul.
Was it to loose Lynn kind of jiggley like ? Haha sounds funny but hoping it's kind of firm. I want to serve it with my ham at our Christmas party and really not fond of the egg yikes in it..tks for your reply 💜
@@Chevy120 i thank you so much for sharing that info. My son ask me to make one and i was not going to because of the eggs. Now i will happily make him one 💖
Tammy, you looked very radiant today. But that is from someone who lives on the edge of danger cause I like to eat raw cake batter out of the bowl! It amazes me about all the egg comments. Over 6 decades and I haven't died.
Love this recipe. I’ve made it for years. The only thing I add extra is 2 teaspoons of vanilla. Followed by Cool whip on top after its cooled. Delicious.
I definitely trying to get away from using it and I’ve actually been winning, I don’t drink milk anymore going for a more healthy lifestyle. I made lemon pies which is what brought me to this video. 😁Haven’t made them in year’s they are always a huge hit at any gathering. Also Eagle Brand is an ingredient in my homemade ice cream 🍨 don’t make that very much either. 😁Shalom everybody.
I think I’m gonna try to make this for my mom, she loves lemons. 🍋 So many of my friends make fun of me because I say icebox instead of refrigerator, I can thank my grandma for that.
I am trying to make every recipe you have a video on Ms. Tammy! I have cooked at least 15 or so thus far. I have to say that everything I have cooked has given me two thumbs up from my family every single time. I made your turkey pot pie 🥧 last night for my father and he ate the whole pie by himself practically, and he usually eats like a bird. Thank you Ms. Tammy for making my cooking and baking skills shoot to a whole new level. I’ve always loved to cook and bake but now I know how to make it all the right way, or shall I say the way our mama’s used to. Thanks again!❤️🙏🏻🥰
@@covergirl7086 No, I do not use eggs. I do, however use 4 lemons...and I had a recipe before Tammy's that didn't call for eggs. Prob. the only reason...hope this helps! ;)
Well I'm going to try this life most everything I have tried of your Recipes are great they remind me of my mother I am 87 and I love the old way of cooking TV for sharing God Bless
My favorite pie. My Mother in law many moon ago taught me to make this delicious pie. Tell me and be honest don't you feel just a little guilty making that delicious pie and enjoying it while we just watch.....
I made this year's ago, and I could remember was theEagle Brand Milk. This has really brought back memories. Thank you for sharing your recipe, I can't wait to try it again. Diet or no diet👍👍
Wow. My mom made this with Nilla Wafers around the crust edge. I never knew the name of this pie! Thank you for uploading. Brought back memories as she is gone now. We love this pie. Oh wow....I just realized.....today is her birthday! Happy Birthday mom!!!
My husband loves anything made with lots of lemon. I’m going to my kitchen to make this right now so it can set up overnight. Tammy, you look so adorably Christmas-ie.
Looks delish! My mom used to make something similar she used pink lemonade in the frozen juice section and cool whip and I think sweetened condensed milk she also made a key lime pie that way it was really good. Thanks for the recipe I'm a new subscriber for sure.
@tonyalittle7613 yes! This is how I used to make it. Went to the store & bought the ingredients yesterday. I bought the regular frozen lemonade in the can & not the pink. I hope it is as good as I remember!
It's really good to see people on video who enjoy their homemade baking craft with 100's of thousands, maybe, millions of RUclipsrs and 🍋 pie. People please don't watch this video while watching The Simpsons at the same time. Now, how far away is Krispy Kreme again from my house?
Mrs. Tammy, talking about bringing back some childhood memories...My mama made this all the time,when I was growing up. She also made one using limeade.
I have made 3 of these in a a few weeks. It's so easy and delicious. It's my all time favorite pie lol. It's so easy and fast. Plus just 3 ingredients. Thank for sharing this out standing recipe.
My first thought “is she going to use any egg yolks.”. I have seen the recipe with no eggs yolks and I thought to myself, you can’t make this pie without the egg yolks. Then you said something about it. I like your videos because I feel comfortable about what you do.
I just read some of the replies. The lemon juice “cooks the egg yolks”. Another good pie is the milk, the lemon juice stirred together and then gently add a small carton of heavy cream whipped. It is a lighter pie. Love it in the summer time.
I sure wish I had my mom's recipe for this. This one is, of course, delicious, but nothing can beat the memories of mama's. She might have used evaporated milk in her recipe- I remember her beating peaks, no cooking, poured it in a metal ice cube tray (with the "innerds" removed and freezing...no meringue on top, just graham cracker crumbs. Whatever recipe...so good in the summertime. Thank you.
My mama and my daddy always made it (without any eggs.)

I was worried about using the eggs uncooked like that. Thanks i will make my pie without them 😁
I have made this for years and I never use egg yolks.
@@Chevy120 i thank you so much for sharing that info. My son ask me to make one and i was not going to because of the eggs. Now i will happily make him one 💖
This is my favorite lemon pie. Just like my mother and her mother made it.
Absolutely love it lemon Icebox is my favorite and your giving me inspiration for a strawberry lemonade Icebox pie for my family's Sunday get together
Tammy, you looked very radiant today. But that is from someone who lives on the edge of danger cause I like to eat raw cake batter out of the bowl! It amazes me about all the egg comments. Over 6 decades and I haven't died.
I added some interesting egg info on the description for everyone.
Love it
I'm with you, as kids we took turns eating the batter from the mixer paddles, mixing spoon and bowl all of 67 now, praise God.
Cassandra Mangrum Same and I’m 62. I’m a twin, my brother got one beater, I got the the other. Yum!
Theres always a first time
Love this recipe. I’ve made it for years. The only thing I add extra is 2 teaspoons of vanilla. Followed by Cool whip on top after its cooled. Delicious.
Thank you for this recipe! This is just the way my mother used to make it too! So delicious.
You are bringing back some beautiful memories! Love your channel!💜
I’m going to make this my husband will love ❤️ it he likes anything with lemon 🍋! Thank you!💕🥰
Mines too . Lemon 🍋 pie,Lemon Cake... Lemon 🍋 Everything..Lol...
Me too yum! Hope it came out great
we never ever leave a drop of eagle brand milk in the can or lid!
Ha! Neither do I!! 😂
I thought the same thing too!
I definitely trying to get away from using it and I’ve actually been winning, I don’t drink milk anymore going for a more healthy lifestyle. I made lemon pies which is what brought me to this video. 😁Haven’t made them in year’s they are always a huge hit at any gathering. Also Eagle Brand is an ingredient in my homemade ice cream 🍨 don’t make that very much either. 😁Shalom everybody.
@@Patienceofthesaints - Sooo … what’s your secret replacement to the condensed milk. Please do share your experience, we’d all appreciate it. 😊
Thank you, thank you! I remember this as a child and have wanted this recipe! Yum yum!!
I absolutely LOVE Tammi, very down to earth & very relatable, keep up the good work 😀
We don’t call it icebox but this pie is at every occasion!
I'm so glad I found your channel and THIS recipe! My MIL(now deceased) use to make this and everyone loved it and I had lost the recipe.
I think I’m gonna try to make this for my mom, she loves lemons. 🍋 So many of my friends make fun of me because I say icebox instead of refrigerator, I can thank my grandma for that.
Nothing wrong with Icebox!! 😚😚
They are probably too young to remember actual ice boxes.
My Daddy used to say that too.. "Go in da icebox 👀and get that"😅
Never mind them. You be you!
I think I'm going to make this and omit the eggs, and fold in some whipped cream and make it a lighter pie. Looks great thank you!
And that's the truth my Mother made it Lord have mercy
I am trying to make every recipe you have a video on Ms. Tammy! I have cooked at least 15 or so thus far. I have to say that everything I have cooked has given me two thumbs up from my family every single time. I made your turkey pot pie 🥧 last night for my father and he ate the whole pie by himself practically, and he usually eats like a bird. Thank you Ms. Tammy for making my cooking and baking skills shoot to a whole new level. I’ve always loved to cook and bake but now I know how to make it all the right way, or shall I say the way our mama’s used to. Thanks again!❤️🙏🏻🥰
Wow thank you so much for the trust and the kind words Tami!
You're sweet!
I grew up on this pie, l just love that tart!!!! Just can't lose weight eating that 😆 but it sure is some kind of good 😋
Yum! I make this all the time for the hubby, he's a lemon freak! I squeeze 4 lemons, if that tells you anything, lol. This is so easy and delish! ;)
Belinda B do you use egg in yours.. I want to make this so bad but just not sure on the eggs.. and if so how many . Thanks so much
@@covergirl7086 No, I do not use eggs. I do, however use 4 lemons...and I had a recipe before Tammy's that didn't call for eggs. Prob. the only reason...hope this helps! ;)
I made this today. I made a homemade Graham cracker crust. The entire thing was excellent.
Oh, I wish I had a piece :)
I had a friend who used to make this pie for us all the time ...I once brought one on the bus from Baltimore to New York ..LOL!!!!
1/4 cup melted Butter brushed on the crust and baked at 350 for ten minutes is awesome. Love this old Southern reci
I just made this pie and took a slice (before it set up even!) and it's DEEElicious! It's so rich! One piece is plenty.
I love anything lemon. I will make this for sure. Seems really easy.
Well I'm going to try this life most everything I have tried of your Recipes are great they remind me of my mother I am 87 and I love the old way of cooking TV for sharing God Bless
My favorite pie. My Mother in law many moon ago taught me to make this delicious pie. Tell me and be honest don't you feel just a little guilty making that delicious pie and enjoying it while we just watch.....
No I never feel guilty lol!
@@CollardValleyCooks shame on you sweet lady
My granny made these pies. So wonderful! Thank you for sharing.
I made this year's ago, and I could remember was theEagle Brand Milk. This has really brought back memories. Thank you for sharing your recipe, I can't wait to try it again. Diet or no diet👍👍
Wow. My mom made this with Nilla Wafers around the crust edge. I never knew the name of this pie! Thank you for uploading. Brought back memories as she is gone now. We love this pie.
Oh wow....I just realized.....today is her birthday! Happy Birthday mom!!!
My husband loves anything made with lots of lemon. I’m going to my kitchen to make this right now so it can set up overnight. Tammy, you look so adorably Christmas-ie.
My mom would make this in the summertime...I'd forgotten how good it was. Thank you... 😊
Never even heard heard of this cake. But I want it
My mom did the same with the small container of Philadelphia cream cheese in. So good!!
Looks delish! My mom used to make something similar she used pink lemonade in the frozen juice section and cool whip and I think sweetened condensed milk she also made a key lime pie that way it was really good. Thanks for the recipe I'm a new subscriber for sure.
Thanks for subbing
@tonyalittle7613 yes! This is how I used to make it. Went to the store & bought the ingredients yesterday. I bought the regular frozen lemonade in the can & not the pink. I hope it is as good as I remember!
It's really good to see people on video who enjoy their homemade baking craft with 100's of thousands, maybe, millions of RUclipsrs and 🍋 pie.
People please don't watch this video while watching The Simpsons at the same time.
Now, how far away is Krispy Kreme again from my house?
Mrs. Tammy, talking about bringing back some childhood memories...My mama made this all the time,when I was growing up. She also made one using limeade.
I have made 3 of these in a a few weeks.
It's so easy and delicious.
It's my all time favorite pie lol.
It's so easy and fast.
Plus just 3 ingredients.
Thank for sharing this out standing recipe.
That's great!
My first thought “is she going to use any egg yolks.”. I have seen the recipe with no eggs yolks and I thought to myself, you can’t make this pie without the egg yolks. Then you said something about it. I like your videos because I feel comfortable about what you do.
I just read some of the replies. The lemon juice “cooks the egg yolks”. Another good pie is the milk, the lemon juice stirred together and then gently add a small carton of heavy cream whipped. It is a lighter pie. Love it in the summer time.
One of my favorite desserts!
My Mother & I makes our Pies the same way. We add Meringue to ours.
Im from Chicago, l love your down to earth attitude and demeanor. Ive starting cooking desserts after watching your show. Keep up the good work.
You look like such a sweetheart love the earrings and necklace.
It looks like Paparazzi! I sell the stuff. Only $5!
I sure wish I had my mom's recipe for this. This one is, of course, delicious, but nothing can beat the memories of mama's. She might have used evaporated milk in her recipe- I remember her beating peaks, no cooking, poured it in a metal ice cube tray (with the "innerds" removed and freezing...no meringue on top, just graham cracker crumbs. Whatever recipe...so good in the summertime. Thank you.
I grew up on these and sweet potato fried pies! Memphis girl! ❤️
