    Frequently Asked Questions

    Can you freeze no bake lemon icebox pie?

    Yes! This pie is frozen after it is put together. It is perfect for making a day or two in advance and having ready to serve. Simply take the pie out of the freezer 15-20 minutes before you want to serve it.

    How many lemons do I need for ⅓ cup lemon juice?

    You will need 3 medium lemons to get ⅓ cup of lemon juice. If lemons aren't in season or hard to get you can also use bottled lemon juice. Before you use the lemons for juice be sure to zest the outside for this recipe and then you can freeze the leftovers for a future recipe.
