Ingredients

Crust Ingredients

1-¼ cup crushed pretzels
1 stick of butter, melted
¼ cup granulated sugar

Filling Ingredients

½ cup crushed or pureed fresh strawberries
½ cup lime juice
14 oz sweetened condensed milk
8 oz Cool Whip, thawed
1-½ oz tequila optional

Instructions

Mix crushed pretzels, melted butter, and sugar in bowl. Press onto the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Place in the refrigerator.
Mix crushed strawberries, lime juice, condensed milk, and optional tequila in a bowl. A wire whisk works well for mixing.
Gently fold in the cool whip with a spatula just until blended. Don't stir or whip vigorously.
Pour strawberry mixture on top of the pretzel crust. Freeze for at least 6 hours (overnight is fine, too). Let thaw on countertop 15 minutes before slicing.

Notes

The easiest and most low-tech way to crush your pretzels is to put them in a zipper-top bag and whack them with a rolling pin. No rolling pin? No problem! You can also use a meat tenderizer, a large can of food, or even a wine bottle (just go easy since it's made of glass!). If you're in a rush, you can also pulse them in a food processor.

Want to make this yummy frozen margarita pie but strawberries aren't in season? No worries! Get yourself some frozen strawberries (no sugar added) instead, thaw them and proceed as instructed. BOOM!

Frozen Strawberry Margarita Pie is now a year-round treat. To make the slices as beautiful and even as possible, run your knife under hot water between each slice. Garnish with fresh strawberries, sliced lime, and an extra dollop of cool whip.

Store pie in the freezer!
