Happy Friday, y'all! I'm a busy busy BUSY bee working to get the Euna Mae's store open in just two weeks! Two. Weeks! I have the most fun merchandise coming in every day! I can't wait for everyone to see and shop and visit! I also have a few collaborations in the works that I can't wait to share with you soon! It all gives me butterflies!

Each of you please email eunamaes@gmail.com for info on how to get your batter bowls! Make something yummy in them, ladies!
Since it's Friday and finally sunny and warm in Northwest Arkansas, I'm sharing one of my favorite freezer pies with y'all for your weekend baking. Baking is actually a strong work for this pie because there's no baking involved at all. I should rephrase and say "for your weekend stirring"...because that's all there is to this sweet little number.
Raspberry Lemonade Freezer Pie is creamy and sweet and tart and cold....all the things I love. As a matter of fact, one time when I was pregnant and my husband was out of town, I ate one of these pies all by myself. Shameful. I cannot muster restraint when this pie is in the freezer. You can certainly lighten this recipe by using sugar free and fat free versions of the ingredients. It may affect the taste and the consistency, but you pick your battles. No matter what, I'd never turn down a piece or three of this dreamy dessert! Hope y'all enjoy!
Raspberry Lemonade Freezer Pie
{makes one pie}
1 pre-made shortbread or graham crust
this comes in a foil pan and are usually in the baking aisle

In a small bowl, sprinkle the fresh raspberries with one teaspoon of sugar and mash with a spoon into a liquidy, berry mush with some small berry chunks still in tact for texture. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and thawed lemonade concentrate until smooth. Stir in the lemon zest and vanilla. Stir in the raspberry mush. Carefully fold in the thawed whipped topping. Fold until well combined.
