Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.33 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cups Sour cream
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.25 cups Fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- 1 cup Fresh fruit or berries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and set. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the sour cream, sweetened condensed milk, fresh lemon juice, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until fully combined and smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Pour the filling into the prepared and cooled pie crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the filling to set.
Before serving, optionally garnish the pie with whipped cream and fresh fruit or berries for an extra touch of sweetness and presentation.
Slice, serve, and enjoy your creamy and tangy sour cream pie!
