Ingredients

For crust
1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs from 9 (2 1/4- by 4 3/4-inch) crackers
2 tablespoons sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For filling
1 lb strawberries, halved (3 1/2 cups)
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh lime zest (from 3 limes)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from 2 limes)
1 (14-oz) can sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons tequila
2 tablespoons triple sec, Cointreau, or other orange-flavored liqueur
1 1/2 cups chilled heavy cream
Garnish: small strawberries

Steps:

Make crust:
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
Stir together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter in a bowl with a fork until combined well, then press mixture evenly onto bottom and up side of a buttered 9-inch metal or glass pie plate (4-cup capacity).
Bake 10 minutes, then cool in pie plate on a rack, about 30 minutes.
Make filling:
Purée strawberries, zest, lime juice, condensed milk, tequila, and liqueur in a blender until just smooth, then transfer to a large bowl.
Beat cream in another bowl with an electric mixer at medium speed until it just holds stiff peaks. Fold one third of cream into strawberry mixture gently but thoroughly to lighten, then fold in remainder in 2 batches.
Pour filling into crust, mounding it slightly, and freeze, uncovered, until firm, about 4 hours. Remove from freezer and let soften in refrigerator, about 40 minutes, before serving (pie should be semisoft).

FROZEN STRAWBERRY MARGARITA PIE

This recipe comes from Land O Lakes and is just a wonderful pie. Great on hot days. This can be made non-alcoholic by just using orange juice, but the adults LOVE this with the tequila!! Instead of having salt on the rim, the salty pretzels as the crust work in this pie!

Tips:

Use a food processor to crush the graham crackers for the crust. This will help to ensure that the crust is evenly crumbled and will hold together well.
If you don't have a food processor, you can use a rolling pin to crush the graham crackers. Place the crackers in a resealable plastic bag and use the rolling pin to crush them until they are fine crumbs.
Be sure to press the crust mixture firmly into the pie plate. This will help to prevent the crust from cracking when you bake it.
Don't overbeat the filling. Overbeating can cause the filling to become too thick and dense.
Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help the filling to set and the pie to firm up.
Garnish the pie with whipped cream, fresh strawberries, or lime zest before serving.

Conclusion:

This frozen strawberry margarita pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy cooks. The combination of sweet strawberries, tangy lime, and creamy margarita filling is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
