No-Bake Recipe

No-Bake Desserts are perfect for summer when you don’t want to heat up the kitchen by turning the oven on. This pie has a deliciously cool and creamy frozen filling. The easy to make filling is made with just 6 ingredients: cream cheese, Margarita mix, sugar, Cool Whip, tequila, and lime zest.

Note: The tequila is optional and can be left out without sacrifing flavor.

3-Ingredient No-Bake Pie Crust

Only 3 ingredients are needed for this simple no-bake pie crust: pretzel crumbs, sugar, and unsalted butter. The pie crust needs to be chilled before adding the filling.

How To Crush The Pretzels

The pretzels for the crust need to be finely crushed. You can either do this in a food processor or place them in a large ziptop bag and crush them with a heavy rolling pin.

Recipe Tip

If you don’t have a pastry bag and star tip, you can just spread a layer of Cool Whip on top.
