Ingredients:

• 1 18 oz package refrigerated sugar cookie dough
• 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 cup lime juice
• 1 envelope lime or lemon lime unsweetened soft drink mix
• 1 8 oz tub Cool Whip, thawed and divided

Method

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Remove cookie dough from wrapper. With floured fingers, press dough in bottom and up sides of an ungreased 9 inch pie pan. Bake for 14-18 minutes, or until golden brown. Cool 15-20 minutes. Combine condensed milk, lime juice and drink mix in large bowl until well blended. Remove 1/2 cup whipped topping from tub and set it aside. Gently stir remaining 2 1/2 cups of whipped topping into mixture in bowl then pour filling into crust. Freeze filled pie for 6 hours or overnight. Let it stand at room temperature for 15 minutes or until pie can be cut easily. Garnish slices with reserved whipped topping before serving. Store any leftover pie in freezer.

Notes: You can add 1/4 teaspoon of lime extract and 2 tbsp of dried lime zest to sugar cookie crust and mix in well for added flavor if you can find them. Don't use fresh lime zest in crust, as it will burn. I don't add those ingredients to base recipe because they can be very difficult to find in some areas.

Number of servings: 8
