Instead of using heavy cream to make fresh whipped cream, you could use 1 cup of Cool Whip.

Simply delicious! I just made one again for my father in law’s Birthday, perfect flavor and texture 😊Thank you!!!
Doesn't set properly. I refigerated it for over 4 hours before cutting and it still ran all over the plate. Not enough lemon flavor either. Lemon desserts should make you pucker and be mouth watering. I'm a seasoned Baker and this was an epic fail! On a good note, the crust is amazingly delicious.
Made this pie for dessert last night and was so disappointed that there was very little hint of lemon flavor. I used 2 fresh lemons plus the zest. My husband loves lemon ice box pie and I chose this one off Google. Now I have to throw it away or put some berries on it to give it some flavor. Not what I was hoping for. The creaminess and look is beautiful. Any suggestion as to why it had virtually no lemon flavor?
Thank you for the recipe. I made it several times this summer and my daughter loves it. Asked for it for Christmas of all things, lol
So glad you liked it!
This is wonderful! I used lemon shortbread cookies and reduced the butter as the cookies already had quite a bit. Since I've never made whipping cream, I used the store bought in a can. I also added more lemon juice as I always do to anything lemony. Thank you for this delightful recipe!
Delicious! Just the right amount of lemon flavor!
