Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
- 0.75 cups freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar.
Pour the melted butter over the crumb mixture and mix until evenly moistened.
Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Place the crust in the freezer for 30 minutes to set.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until medium peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture until fully incorporated and smooth.
Pour the lemon filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and freeze for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to slightly soften. Slice and serve immediately.
