Canned lemon pie filling

[cottun]

Is there anything I can do with this stuff besides make lemon meringue pies or tarts with it? DD gave me 3 cans of it, but I know I will never use it to make pies!

Just Eat It Like Pudding If You Don't Want To Make A Pie. Or Make A White Cake And Use It Between The Layers With A 7 Minute Frosting!! Yummy! Cut Each Layer In Half So You Get More Lemon Pudding

Nu, I like the cake idea! And you know the frosting for Sunshine cake? I wonder how that would taste on it if I made it with a box of lemon pudding mix instead of French Vanilla?

Re: Canned lemon pie filling

Instead of making the lemon gelatin part - just use your lemon filling. Just follow the last part of the recipe

LEMON SNOW PUDDING

1 envelop unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar

4 egg whites
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
1/2 cup toasted almonds
raspberry sauce

Dissolve gelatin in cold water. Add the boiling water and lemon juice. Stir in sugar and blend well until completely dissolved. Chill until mixture starts to jell.

Beat egg whites with cream of tartar to form soft peaks, and gradually add sugar while beating to firm peaks. Fold into the jellied mixture.
Pour into a ring mold, a decorative mold or individual molds. Chill until set. Unmold and sprinkle with almonds. Serve with raspberry sauce.

I used to make 3 ingredient recipes alot.. and our fav was can of lemon pudding, box of angel food cake and powder sugar.
Mix pudding and cake mix... bake 350 for 27mins... Cool and dust with powdered sugar

Weird.. my son made my instant lemon pudding after my mouth surgery last week. and he was asking me which I like better.. his he made or the ready serve ones I get him for his lunches. And I told him about canned lemon pudding.. and he was it on his shopping list.
Oh by the way.. Even though I like the canned the best I told him his was the best. He beamed with pride
