Frozen Lemon Dessert with a graham cracker crust. We love this simple dessert.
This recipe is a family favorite. It comes from Kyle’s grandma. “Grandma G.B.” as we call her, she was a sweet grandma and so very with it! I love that we all think of her when we make this recipe. That’s the great thing about recipes, and food, they always bring us back together, some of the best memories.
You can find the recipe below, but here are all the ingredients to give you a visual of all you’ll need to make this dessert.
Once all assembled, you will freeze it up to 4 hours or overnight.
It’s so light and fresh, perfect for Spring and Summer.
