Margarita Pie with a Pretzel Crust

Frozen Margarita Pie
Cook's notes: This refreshing pie is tart and tangy with all the great flavors of a margarita drink. The savory crunchy pretzel crust is a nice contrast to the margarita flavored creamy filling. Garnish the pie with toasted coconut or lime slice twists. It's the perfect dessert for an outdoor barbecue or midday break out on the deck or porch.
A graham cracker crust can be substituted for a pretzel crust.
Ingredients Filling:
  • 1 quart of vanilla ice cream, softened 
  • 1/3 cup frozen limeade concentrate, thawed (no water) 
  • 2 TB. fresh lime juice
  • 2 TB. triple sec or orange liqueur
  • 2 TB. tequila
  • 2 drops green food coloring 
Ingredients Pretzel Crust: 
  • 4 TB. melted butter
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 cups crushed pretzels
Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  • Use food processor to crush pretzels, add in sugar and butter, mix well
  • Press pretzel mixture into a pie pan and bake for 5 minutes, set aside to cool. To harden crust place in a freezer for 10 minutes just before adding ice cream filling
  • In a large bowl add softened ice cream, liqueurs, limeade concentrate, lime juice and drop of green food coloring
  • Mix well and spread evenly in prepared cooled crust
  • Cover pie with foil and store in freezer at least 4 hours before serving

As The Duct Tape Guy said “You only need two tools in life, Duct Tape® and WD-40. If it’s not stuck and it’s supposed to be, Duct Tape it. If it’s stuck and it’s not supposed to be, WD-40 it.”
