Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cup Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Use the bottom of a flat measuring cup to help even out the layer. Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. The mixture will thicken slightly as you stir.
In a separate medium bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the heavy cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then whip to stiff peaks.
Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the lemon mixture to lighten it. Once incorporated, fold in the remaining whipped cream until no streaks remain.
Pour the lemon filling into the chilled graham cracker crust. Smooth the top with a spatula and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until the pie is set.
Optionally, garnish with additional whipped cream, lemon zest curls, or fresh berries before serving.
Slice and serve chilled. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
