Tang Pie Recipes

ORANGE TANG PIE RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a mixing bowl with an electric mixer on low, combine the Tang, cream cheese, and condensed milk until well blended and the drink mix is dissolved.
• Fold 1 1/2 cups of the whipped cream into the cream cheese and Tang mixture.
• Spoon the filling into the crust; cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
• Top the chilled pie with the remaining whipped cream or top individual servings.
• Garnish with slices of orange or fresh berries.

BETTER TANG PIE

Steps:

• Mix Tang, cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk until Tang is dissolved and mixture is smooth. Fold in half of the tub of Cool Whip.
• Pour mixture in the graham cracker crust. Spread the other half of the Cool Whip on top of pie.
• Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.

PASTRY DOUGH (MADAM BENOIT'S NO FAIL LEMON TANG PASTRY)

Steps:

• A LARGE MIXING BOWL: 5 cups flour 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon soda Use a whisk to mix.
• Cut in one pound of lard.
• Mix to resemble coarse crumbs.
• IN A ONE CUP MEASURING CUP: Add 1 whole egg 3 tablespoons lemon juice Mix with a fork and add enough water to fill the one cup measuring cup.
• Add the cup of liquid to the dry ingredients and mix until dough forms into a ball.
• (at this point I form into balls using approximate amount for the size pie plate I'm using and place into a plastic bag until ready to roll.) NOTE: Rolling the dough between two sheets of wax paper makes for a nice even sheet of pastry.
• This will make 3-4 double pies-- depending on what size pie pans you are using.

CREAMSICLE PIE

Steps:

• Mix together Tang, sweetened condensed milk, sour cream and one of the containers of Cool Whip.
• Use second container for topping of the two pies.
• I sprinkle a little bit of Tang on the top for presentation.
• Refrigerate 4 hours.
