On a hot summer day this cream cheese lemonade pie is just what is needed. This pie is creamy, tart and full of lemony flavor. This is definitely a refreshing, super delicious, creamy dessert. My co-worker, Dawn, gave me some awesome lemon recipes last week and I am loving these tasty lemon desserts. Sharing recipes from my friends is a lot of fun. I love seeing and hearing about my friend’s favorite recipes that they have grown up loving. I’m looking forward to more of Dawn’s family’s recipes.
I was telling my friend, Arnetta, who works at the bank, about this pie the other day and now I will be delivering one of these tasty pies to her in the morning. She always talks about my blog to all the tellers that help me, every time I go in to the bank. I love her for doing that and sharing my website with her co-workers. So what better way to thank her then by sharing this delicious cream cheese lemonade pie in return.
