Fully Loaded Million Dollar Pie - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1/3 cup lemon juice, bottled is OK
0.5 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
16 ounces Cool Whip
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice (drained)
0.5 (7 ounce) can mandarin orange sections (drained)
3 -4 maraschino cherries (drained)
1/4 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 1/2 cups pecans (chopped small)
1 1/2 cups walnuts (chopped small)
2 graham cracker pie crusts
Preparation
-
Place all drained fruit into a food chopper or processor and pulse to make into smaller bits.
Place fruit into a mesh strainer and press out juices. The fruit must be fairly dry in order for the pie to set properly.
Put the nuts and coconut into the chopper and pulse a few times to make into smaller pieces.
Mix lemon juice and sweetened condensed milk with a mixer until well blended and it thickens.
Fold milk mixture, strained fruit, nuts, coconut and Cool Whip together. Mix together lightly until all ingredients are well blended and evenly distributed in the filling.
Divide the filling between the two pie shells, cover and refrigerate overnight to allow flavors to blend and the filling to set firmly.
Serve cold.
