This is the best pie to make during the summer. I made it this weekend for Joey's dad that came down from PA and even though it's terrible unhealthy it was such a great, cold treat after working all day in the hot sun.
After you read the ingredients you'll know why I say it's "un"healthy... you'll also want to make a quick run to the grocery store!
CRUST //
Ready to use graham cracker crust
Brush with egg and place in oven for about 5 mins at 375 degrees

We've had to make special trips to get snow cones or watermelon milkshakes several times this summer already. Enjoy!
