This is an old-time recipe I received from someone in my family. The ice box part of the name means this recipe was created before people had refrigerators. Instead people had what were called ice boxes to keep their food cool. Many cooks from that time developed some excellent recipes that are very easy to make, and yet absolutely delicious. This is one of them. # Step 1 # Put the 2 cans of sweetened condensed milk in a mixing bowl. # Step 2 Stir in the 1 cup lemon juice. # Step 3 Pour into a graham cracker pie crust. # Step 4Yummy

Refrigerate pie. # Step 5 When chilled, cover the top of the pie with the contents of a small container of Cool Whip. # Step 6 Serve and enjoy. # == #* 2 cans condensed milk #* 1 cup lemon juice #* graham cracker pie crust #* 1 container cool whip

Lemon BarsCrust

• 1 cup flour
• 1/8 teaspoon salt (optional)
• 1/2 cup sugar or Splenda granular
• 1/4-1/3 cup butter, the recipe book says 1/3 but I reduced it and it still comes out great

Topping

• 3 medium eggs or 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup sugar or Splenda sugar substitute, see butter
• 2 tablespoons flour
• 1 1/4 teaspoons grated lemon rind (optional)
• 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice, make sure there aren't any seeds
• confectioners' sugar (optional)

Directions1. 1

Preheat oven to 375. Spray a 9x9 pan with nonstick spray and lightly flour.

2. 2

Mix flour, salt, and sugar together. Add butter and mix (or 'cut') until it clumps. I just squish it with my hands until the butter is evenly distributed and looks like breadcrumbs. Pat this baby evenly on the pan and bake about 15 minutes until the top appears dry and the edges are lightly brown. Cool on wire rack and reduce heat to 350.

3. 3

While you're waiting for crust, mix all the topping ingredients together (except the confectioner's sugar) and food processor/mix until well blended (it will be very liquid-like). Pour mixture on top of the prebaked crust and bake for about 15 - 17 minutes or until the top appears dry (it's normal if the center puffs up a bit). DON'T OVERCOOK, POR FAVOR!

4. 4

Cool for an hour. Sprinkle with a bit of confectioner's sugar if you wish. Cut into 25 squares. MAKE SURE YOU SHARE! :].

There are several recipe's online, but here is one way that you can make it. A list of ingredients that you might need:

-1 cup white sugar

-2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

-3 tablespoons cornstarch

-1/4 teaspoon salt

-1 1/2 cups water

-2 lemons, juiced and zested

-2 tablespoons butter

-4 egg yolks beaten

-1 nine inch pie crust (baked)

-4 egg whites

-6 tablespoons white sugar

First, you need to preheat your oven to 350º (175ºC). To make your lemon filling, grab a saucepan and whisk together 1 cup sugar, flour, cornstarch, and salt. Next, stir in the water, lemon juice, and lemon zest and cook over a medium-high heat, stirring occasionally until the mix starts to boil. Stir in the butter and place the egg yolks into the sugar mix. Whisk the egg yolks into the sugar mixture and and continue to stir the mix until it becomes thick. Remove and then place the mix into the baked pastry shell.

To make the meringue, whip egg yolks until foamy in a glass container. Add sugar and continue to whip until small peaks form. Spread meringue over the pie and seal the edges of the crust. Bake for 10 minutes or until meringue is golden brown and enjoy!
