The year was 1972 and at a bridal shower when we had a recipe exchange. My soon to be mother in law Jackie gave me this recipe and I have to tell you I sure did love it. My school friends and I spent a great deal of time over at her house as it was. She was young, beautiful, a hairdresser and excellent cook to just name a few of her qualities and talents!
Jackie is the lady in pink who looks as if she could be my age...You have most likely in the past few oh thirty some years had some of this pie but if not give it a try. It is a very easy to mix together pie that is really very delicious in the Summertime but hey I wanted some now so here is the recipe for
Million Dollar Pie (or as some in the 70's called it ) Cool Whip Pie:
1 15oz. can crushed pineapple drained1 can sweetened condensed milk1/3 cup lemon juice1 cup flaked coconut1/3 cup chopped pecans1 8ounce container of Cool Whip Mix all of the above &
2 graham cracker pie crusts
then divide among the pie shells
cover with the clear lid (you know the one that is inverted on the purchased pie crusts) turned upside down close pie with lid and then chill for at least one hour or even better overnight.
___________________________________________________________________________________Another variation for this type of pie from Jackie is:1 can sweetened condensed milk1 8 oz. Cool Whip1 cup of chopped nuts1 tsp. lemon juice1 2oz. can crushed pineapple drainedmix the above ingredients andpour into1 or 2 your choice of baked pie shellstop with flaked coconutchill until set
Enjoy!Dolly
