Ingredients
Method
Preparation of the Crust
- In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Use a spoon or spatula to mix well, then press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a pie dish to create an even crust.
Making the Filling
- In another bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and lemon zest until you get a smooth mixture.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream along with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the lemon mixture until everything is combined. Then, fold in the remaining whipped cream, being careful not to deflate it.
Assembling the Pie
- Pour the creamy lemon filling into your prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Place the pie in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, or until it’s completely set.
Serving
- Serve chilled and enjoy a refreshing bite of lemon goodness!
