I found this lemon pie recipe a couple of years ago and made it for a dinner party. There were about 4 other pies and this is the only one that was gone. I have been making it ever since and because lemons are great all year ’round. All holidays or any day is a wonderful occasion.
Ingredients
Pie Crust
- 1 ½ cups crushed graham crackers
- ½ cup white sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Pie Filling
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 (3 ounce) package lemon-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®)
- 1 (14 ounce) can chilled sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1 large lemon, zested and juiced
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Mix graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter together in a bowl. Press crust mixture into a 9-inch pie pan.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let cool, 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 4
Meanwhile, combine boiling water and gelatin mix. Let dissolve and cool, 15 to 20 minutes. Do not let set.
Step 5
Blend cooled gelatin mixture, condensed milk, cream cheese, and lemon zest and juice together in a bowl. Beat until well mixed, 3 to 4 minutes. Add mixture to the cooled pie crust and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
