lemon ice box pie
Ingredients
For the crust:
1 1/2 cups (6 ounces) graham cracker crumbs (10 to 12 full-size crackers)
2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
1/4 pound (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
For the filling:
2 (14-ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup lemon juice
Whipped cream
preparation
To make the crust: In a medium bowl, blend together the crumbs, cinnamon, and butter using a handheld mixer until fully incorporated. Scrape the mixture into a 9-inch pie pan. Using your fingers or the back of a spoon, press the mixture firmly onto the base and up the sides of the pan, forming a uniform crust about 1/4-inch thick. Refrigerate until ready to use.
To make the filling: In a medium saucepan, preferably nonstick, whisk together the milk, egg yolks, and lemon juice until smooth. Cook the custard over medium heat until very hot to the touch, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Do not allow to boil.
Strain the custard through a sieve into the prepared pie shell. Smooth the filling, forming a slight dome in the center. Refrigerate uncovered at least one hour, or until set. Cover with plastic wrap and chill completely, at least another hour.
Serve wedges cold with plenty of whipped cream, Store covered in the refrigerator.

If you go to eaglebrand.com you will probably find it. There are so many lemon recipes there but I didn't see icebox pie. Perhaps it has another name? Hope this helps you.

BEST-DAMN-LEMON-ICE-BOX-PIE-ON-EARTH RECIPE
Three (3) eggs (room temperature)
One-half cup of lemon juice (fresh is best)
(Micro-waving for a minute or less produces more juice)
One teaspoon grated lemon rind - using the outside only with as little of the white inner flesh as possible (also referred to as zest) Grate lemon rind before micro-waving and/or juicing lemons
One can of condensed milk
Separate the eggs (MAKE SURE no yolk gets into the whites!). Beat the egg yolks well. Add lemon juice and grated rind. Add milk. Mix well. Pour into a Graham cracker crust.
The next obvious step for a lemon ice box pie would be to make and apply the meringue. However, my boy and I have noticed that the meringue gets hard after several days in the refrigerator and we end up taking it off so we can get to the "goodie" part beneath. Besides, that meringue takes up a lot of valuable space which could be totally occupied by the "goodie" part so we instruct our cook to forget the meringue, double the goodie part (listed above) and bake at 350 degrees F. for 12-15 minutes. If we want something on top, we will use some instant topping such as Cool Whip, Whipped Cream, Dream Whip, etc.
But for those of you who want that better-eat-it-quick-before-it-turns to-concrete meringue topping, here is the recipe:
For the meringue topping:
Three (3) egg whites from the above 3 separated eggs
One tablespoon water
A pinch of salt
One-fourth teaspoon cream of tartar
Five (5) tablespoons of sugar
The three (3) egg whites should be beaten in the large mixer bowl. Add one tablespoon of water and a pinch of salt. Beat on high until foamy and add one-fourth teaspoon cream of tartar. Beat until stiff. Add one tablespoon of sugar at a time (Mix well each addition) until 5 tablespoons have been added. Fold in one teaspoon of vanilla. Cover the top of the pie with meringue. Bake at 350 degrees F. until the top is a golden brown.
