Frozen Mojito Pie
This frozen mojito pie is the perfect summer dessert!
Servings: 8 Slices
Ingredients
- 1 cup finely crushed pretzels
- 5 tablespoons butter melted
- 8 ounces block of cream cheese softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- Zest from 1 lime
- Juice from 2 limes
- 2 to 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint (I like it minty, so I use 3 tbsp. of mint)
- 2 cups whipped topping like Cool Whip
Instructions
- Prep the pretzel crust. In a mixing bowl, combine pretzel crumbs and butter; mix until combined. Press the pretzels onto the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan. Freeze for one hour, or until firm.
- Make the filling. In your mixer’s bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sugar, lime zest, lime juice, and mint; beat until well blended. Fold in the whipped topping.
- Fill and freeze. Spoon the filling over the pretzel crust. Freeze for 6 hours or overnight.
- Finish and serve. Remove the pie from the pan and top it with crushed pretzels and lime slices. Cut and serve. Keep the pie in the freezer.
Notes
- It’s best to let the pie sit at room temp for 5–10 mins before slicing if it’s rock-solid from the freezer.
- If you want to make it fancier, a splash of white rum wouldn’t hurt for that mojito vibe.
