Allow your cream cheese block to sit out a little while to melt and make it easier to blend, around 5 minutes. In a large bowl pour your thawed lemonade into your bowl. Add your cream cheese. Blend these two items well. Once the ingredients are thoroughly mixed, incorporate the cool whip and blend again until it's whipped to a desirable consistency. Empty the contents of the Lemon Cool Whip into the pre-made Graham Cracker pie crust. Cover and allow the pie to become chilled before serving.

To make your lemon pie appear more yellow, try adding a few drops of yellow food coloring to the mixture. This will give it a brighter and more appealing appearance. Elevate the flavor profile of your pie by adding a touch of decoration with lemon rind. Simply sprinkle a small amount of grated lemon zest on top of the pie and enjoy the zesty flavor it adds to your dessert. You can top the lemon 🍋 pie with thinly sliced lemon to add a decorative touch.
