Anne – my grandmother put hers in a really old square metal baking dish. I bet this recipe is really close to what your grandmother did. Give it a shot and let me know how it goes!!

Bless your heart! I’ve been looking for a recipe like this for YEARS! My grandmother used to make a Lemon Ice Box Pie in metal ice trays (minus the part you inserted to separate the cubes) and froze it. That was the best pie I’ve ever had! All the other recipes I’ve found call for meringue on top….that’s a Lemon MERINGUE Pie! Thank you SO much for posting a Lemon ICE BOX Pie recipe for me to try!

I’m confused about the rind- do you mean to est it? Or just throw the whole rind in? Help!

I made a lemon tart similar to this and it was a huge hit with my family! I will definitely try it with a graham cracker crust next time!

I’ll write up my grandmother’s other icebox dessert ASAP – the one that took Peppermint Thrifty’s Ice Cream – which they only had special at the holidays. We now make the same dessert with TJ’s Chocolate Mint Ice Cream. Oh how times have changed!

I love Thrifty’s ice cream! As a kid we would walk from the hills to Ventura Blvd and have one of our most favorite treats!! We would typically get 2 scoops but on occasion we would get brave and go for the gusto! 3 or 4!!
This ice box lemon pie looks amazing and would be a big hit with Dad AKA cheese pie guy!! hehehe!!

There is a brand of pasteurized whites at my Whole Foods that did well in this dessert. The Lemon taste was strong enough that I couldn’t taste any difference. I’ll look for the shell eggs that you suggest. Thanks for the tip!
