@@hotwaterisspicy you can always put the lime in the coconut. It's not just a song;coconut milk or coconut cream with some lime and a little sugar (or brown sugar) is an excellent flavor (with or without rum).

[@deereating9267]

One of our favorite recipes! I've also added one egg yolk and baked it for just a few minutes at 350 (like 8-10 minutes) and it is a beautiful golden yellow color and sets up quite solid when chilled. We top it with whipped cream. We also make a pineapple fluff pie from the pantry - one can of crushed pineapple with the juice, one thawed small tub of frozen whipped topping (cool whip) and one package of vanilla instant pudding. Mix that together, pour into a graham crust and chill. Fantastic for summer.

This pie is great especially if you love lemon curd or other lemon deserts. I made it without the crust and added sweetened macerated and mashed black berries to the top. That really helped balance the acidity and added another layer of flavor. I like to spoon this desert onto Belgian waffles. Making this desert with the these changes or add-ons made it even more amazing. I highly recommend it.

[@starless1444]

I have a fudge recipe I made on accident recently and I think you'll love it! I call it APOCALYPSE FUDGE. It is a simple 4 ingredient recipe. All you need is hot water, sweet melting chocolate (the kind for dipped fruit) maybe a handful or two of that. The more chocolate the better. Dried powder peanut butter (I like to use PBFit but there's another brand at Big Lots). Three large tablespoons of that powder (depending on how much fudge you want it varies). And diced almonds. Mix the dry ingredients together. I personally use my coffee pot for just about everything but coffee because it creates hot water faster than a stove. Just slowly pour the hot water until it mixes the dry ingredients into a fudge mixture. Flatten the fudge in your bowl. You'll need a metal spoon because the mixture becomes very thick. Leave to cool until the fudge is hardened and you have perfect no fridge necessary fudge. Best on a cold night.

I have also seen a recipe variation that didn’t have cream cheese but cool whip folded into it. All no bake recipes. This is my favorite pie!!! My Granny made it all the time when I was growing up. Plus I love anything lemon flavored. I think the cream cheese version just adds another level of depth to tame some of the sweetness of the condensed milk and also extra creamy!!!

My favorite pie ever! Lots of sweet memories of my dad making this pie. He would make the crust and I would help press it into a pie plate. Then he'd stir the sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice together while I licked out the milk can. Sometimes we couldn't wait until the pie was set to eat ... it would be a little runny but still just as delicious! I know it's an old fashioned recipe, but until a couple years ago it felt like NO ONE had ever heard of this recipe but it's the only lemon pie recipe I know.

@@Nirrrina instant pot would work, just be careful, don't want to have a hot can of dulce de leche explode on you I'd think the instant pot version would be safer actually, the pressure inside would help keep the can from exploding, and even if it did, the walls of the instant pot would act as a barrier to keep it inside

First, your filling recipe is what we used to do in the Boy Scouts as a dessert! I still make this on occasion to this day. Second... I'm low-key jealous of the fact that you've two kitchens.

[@franshaw8242]

I think she is adding her new kitchen and phasing out the old one...😉

[@dhesyca4471]

I got loads of fresh grapefruits, so I'm going to try this with them! Thank you, Emmy, for giving the juice amount in measuring cups instead of number of lemons!

[@angelicagonzalez2541]

I love when she gets excited I imagine a kid version of her getting excited 😊

[@forbiddenfig4033]

This is so good & simple! I tried a couple times w/ & w/out lemon zest, but tonight I am going to try a lime juice one! I wonder if it would also set up well w/ other citrus fruits like oranges/mandarin/yuzu etc.

[@usagi18]

I have a similar one, just substitute one of the cans of condensed milk with a cream cheese package, dump that in the blender, and thank me later Oh... and we add some cherry filling on top, but that's just us

[@stillstormie7222]

Do you still add the lemon juice in the same amount?

[@usagi18]

@@stillstormie7222 yup

[@franshaw8242]

I would put whipped cream on top!!

[@saltinawenchito3927]

Yes! My grandma made it this way with cream cheese and put cherry filling on top, called it “Cheesefake” instead of cheesecake

[@usagi18]

My mom used to make this all the time when I was a kid, I think she used lemonaide concentrate in the can, and added that to sweetened condensed milk. And topped with cool whip! Loved watching this video. Just looking for a fun, easy treat for thanksgiving dessert this year.

[@MlleRedVelvet]

My mom does a recipe similar to this, but she adds cream cheese. So it's a lemon cheese pie with a blueberry garniture :) It's my favourite dessert and i ask for it every year for my birthday

[@lynrooks1971]

My mom adds cream cheese too

[@apollo9661]

I'm gonna try that!

[@MlleRedVelvet]

@@apollo9661 I really recommend it ! It's a can of sweetened condensed milk, one packet of cream cheese, lemon juice (i never remember how much so i go by taste)

[@Funshine4u]

I made this yesterday and it was delicious!! Thank you for sharing with us all!!

[@Poonamsmartkitchen]

Nice 👌

[@lindeehopkins6439]

Always love your bright smile Emmy! TY for caring for others while you yourself are so isolated

[@brittanylu314]

i'm venturing to the grocery store tomorrow, definitely buying ingredients for this pie! small comforts are important

[@theresachiorazzi4571]

Emmy speaks clearly to understand I will try this in the near future

[@fbauefigad]

Emmy, this recipe reminded me of a chinese pudding recipe. It's just ginger juice and warm milk, and sugar to taste. Here is a link of the recipe from a youtuber called Pailin. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eaq4e5ycopl7ldk

[@QueenGoddessYume]

I love Pailin . She and Emmy are alot alike in personality. Pailin had her son on the other day. I can't believe he is 1. He has the most hair if any baby I've seen!

[@pqlasmdhryeiw8]

If Souped Up Recipes can do Chinese Ginger Milk Pudding, then I INSIST that Emmy makes it too! Emmy, do your thing.

[@jasonv.2112]

She always gives off these amazing, chill, happy vibes! Love you Emmy!

[@1ericedwards]

"I think it would be really fun to do with kids. I think they would feel very satisfied and accomplished making a dessert like this." I feel called out and attacked by this statement. I'm in this statement and I don't like it. 🤣

[@jacknewport2560]

Emmy you have been making my stress melt during this time of pandemic thanks for putting me at ease with your videos

[@bgishy]

Who else used to eat sweetened condensed milk by the spoonful as a kid. Yum!!!🤤😋 I bet this would be awesome in some puff pastry or FILO dough shells! Extra dressed up!

[@pjtfd3849]

As a kid?!?!

[@bgishy]

pjtfd LOL...Or an adult. 🤣

[@choochcardinale6595]

Will any I just wanted to tell you that I tried making this lemon pie and it turned out scrumpdiliumptious. Thank you so much for the recipe. Anybody could make this pie. You can't even make a mistake. Great pie

[@Froshow]

Ok ok ok I had all this in my kitchen so I was like “I need something like to emotional eat all day tomorrow Soooooooo 😅I just made this. Added zest of lime. Made a crust/crumble top out ofGolden Grams and Cinnamon Toast Crunch with butter and brown sugar, baked it until it was crispy/soft crumbley. Easiest thing ever gonna do this with Key-Lime. 🍋🍈🐷🐷🐷

[@prettymuchaheadass348]
