Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 14-ounce can Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cup Lemon juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 tablespoon Lemon zest
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 4 slices Lemon slices (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar.
Add the melted butter to the crumb mixture and stir until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth and well combined.
Pour the lemon filling into the prepared crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
In another bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar together with a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
Spread the whipped cream evenly over the lemon filling, using the back of a spoon or an offset spatula to create swirls, if desired.
Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
Before serving, garnish with lemon slices, if desired. Slice and enjoy!
