Ingredients
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons melted butter
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
8 ounces whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
1 1/2 cups lemon curd or lemon pie filling
1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
1/2 cup whipped cream (for garnish)
Instructions
1. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
2. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie plate and refrigerate for 30 minutes or bake at 350°F for 8–10 minutes. Let cool.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and beat until fully combined.
4. Gently fold in the whipped topping until mixture is fluffy.
5. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly into the cooled crust. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
6. Spoon lemon curd over the cream layer and smooth with a spatula. Chill for at least 2 more hours or until set.
7. Before serving, top with whipped cream and lemon zest. Slice and serve chilled.
Notes
Let the cream cheese fully soften before mixing for a smooth filling.
Chill the pie overnight for best slicing results.
Garnish just before serving to keep toppings fresh and vibrant.
