Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams graham crackers
- 100 grams unsalted butter
- 200 grams cream cheese
- 50 grams powdered sugar
- 200 ml sweetened condensed milk
- 60 ml orange juice
- 30 ml lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 200 ml whipped cream
Instructions
Preheat a small saucepan over low heat and melt the unsalted butter.
Place the graham crackers in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs.
Mix the melted butter with the graham cracker crumbs until fully combined, resembling wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of an 8-inch round pan to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add sweetened condensed milk, orange juice, lemon juice, orange zest, and lemon zest to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until well combined and creamy.
Gently fold in the whipped cream until fully incorporated without deflating its volume.
Pour the citrus cream mixture over the chilled graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours or until set.
Slice and serve chilled. Optional: garnish with additional orange slices or zest for decoration.
