Step-by-Step Instructions
First, I start by taking a mixing bowl and pouring in the sweetened condensed milk; it’s always such a treat to see how creamy and thick it looks! Then, I gradually mix in the lemonade, whisking until they come together into a smooth, luscious blend. The smell of fresh lemonade fills the air, and I love how it instantly feels like summer in my kitchen! After that, I fold in the whipped topping gently using my rubber spatula, taking care not to deflate that lovely fluffiness. It’s so satisfying to see the mixture transform into a creamy dream!
