Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 0.75 cups fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon lemon zest
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 0.5 cups powdered sugar
• 1 cups heavy whipping cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 slices optional lemon slices for garnish

Directions

Step 1

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 2

Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to set.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest. Set aside.

Step 4

In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Gradually fold the cream cheese mixture into the lemon mixture until well combined.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.

Step 7

Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon and cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

Step 8

Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the filling to set.

Step 10

Before serving, garnish with lemon slices if desired. Slice and enjoy your Lemon Dream Pie!
