This is was one of the pies my mother made for Thanksgiving when I was growing up. Since I haven't had it in years, I recently asked her to make it, but she didn't have it - recently threw out some recipes she thought would never make again. OUCH. She didn't tell me, and when I had the lemon pie she brought she told me it was a recipe her and my dad found on the internet. CUT TO THE CASE - I was determined to find this recipe (took quite a while) but found it on Ebay of all places! There was a Jell-o ad from 1966 being auctioned - it is "Dream Whip Jell-o Two Story Lemon Pie". Then much later I found this page.

Needless to say, this is such a good recipe and it is different from those using cream cheese or sweetened condensed milk, or mixing lemon jello with cool whip. Though it is not the season for lemon pies, I will make this for Christmas and surprise everyone.
