tipsy luciously lemon refrigerator pie
A fresh take on an old standard, I decided to spike it a bit with triple sec and increase the volume of the filling with some cool whip. Added just enough triple sec to taste but still keep the integral fresh lemon flavor. Relatively quick and easy to put together, a store bought graham cracker crust could alternatively make preparation even quicker. Please Note: Prep time does not include time for chilling crust and completed pie.
