LEMON ICEBOX PIE

Lemon Icebox Pie is a classic, no-bake dessert. With a graham cracker crust and

silky lemon filling, this refreshing pie is a spring must.

The perfect pie for lemon lovers & lazy bakers!

Run out a grab some lemons off your tree.

For The Crust.

Blend up 1 1/2 cups of graham crackers.

Toss the graham crackers into a bowl and pour in 6 tablespoons of butter.

Add in 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar to the bowl.

Using a fork stir until fully incorporated.

Butter up your pie plate well.

Using the back of a spoon, press graham cracker mixture firmly

into the bottom and sides of the pie pan.

Refrigerate while preparing the filling.

 For The Pie Filling.

In a large bowl add in 8 ounces of cream cheese room temperature.

Beat the cream cheese till smooth with a mixer.

Perfect.

Add in one can of sweetened condensed milk.

Mix the bowl until combined.

Pour in 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract.

To the bowl add 1 tablespoon lemon zest.

Juice up about 4 lemons to make up 1/2 cup of lemon juice.

Pour the fresh lemon juice into the bowl and give it a good stir.

Set this bowl aside.

You will need 1 cup of very cold heavy cream. I popped the cream into

the freezer for about 15 minutes to get it really chilled.

In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

Perfect :)

Add the whip cream into the lemon mixture and beat it all together.

Perfect. 

I know how to clean these. Yum!

Grab your pie crust out of the refrigerator.

Pour the lemon filling into graham cracker crust and smooth with a spatula.

Perfect but not finished yet :)

I know how to clean this spatula too. Yum!

Sprinkle the Lemon Icebox Pie with some lemon zest.

Refrigerate until firm and chilled through, about 2 hours.

Time to indulge!

I made this pie several times and it always is a total hit. You will

love it too because it's so quick to make and takes

only a few ingredients.

This pie turns out so creamy and rich, yet light and refreshing at the same time.

Be sure to refrigerate any left over pie.... if there is any.

Enjoy!
