Corner Sweet Shoppe
List of Ingredients
1 small box lemon gelatin
1 1/2 cups boiling water
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1/4 cup soft butter or margarine
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
3/4 cup medium-fine pretzel crumbs (from thin pretzel sticks)
Recipe
Place gelatin in medium bowl; pour in boiling water, stirring until
gelatin is dissolved. Stir in ice cream until well blended. Add
ginger and lemon peel.
Partially fill large bowl with ice cubes and water; set bowl of
gelatin mixture into it to hasten setting. If kitchen is very warm,
place both bowls in refrigerator. As gelatin mixture begins to set
around edges, stir occasionally.
Meanwhile, in ungreased 8-inch pie plate, combine butter, sugar and
pretzel crumbs until well blended. With back of spoon, press mixture
against bottom and sides of pie plate. Refrigerate.
When gelatin mixture has just set, beat with mixer or hand beater
until smooth. Replace in bowl of water for a few minutes until it
becomes stiff enough to mound. Spoon mixture into chilled crust.
Refrigerate pie for several hours.
Garnish pie with one whole pretzel or several broken pretzel sticks.
