Ingredients:
For the Creamy Lemonade Pie Filling:
– 1 (5 oz) can evaporated milk
– 1 (3.4 oz) box instant lemon pudding mix
– 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
– ¾ cup frozen lemonade concentrate
For the Homemade Graham Cracker Crust:
– 2 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
– ⅓ cup sugar
– ⅔ cup melted butter
(or 1 pre-made 9-inch graham cracker crust for a no-bake shortcut!)
Instructions:
1. Make the Graham Cracker Crust:
Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Press firmly into a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate, covering the sides.
Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes, then let cool completely.
(Skip this step if using a store-bought crust.)
2. Prepare the Lemonade Cream Filling:
In a small bowl, whisk evaporated milk with lemon pudding mix until thick (about 2 minutes).
In another bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
Gradually add lemonade concentrate and the pudding mixture until creamy and well blended.
3. Assemble the Pie:
Spoon the lemon cream mixture into the cooled crust. Smooth the top evenly.
4. Chill & Serve:
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) until firm.
Slice and serve chilled for a creamy lemon dessert that melts in your mouth!
