LEMON TRUFFLE PIE



Lemon Truffle Pie image

An adaptation of the Pillsbury Bakeoff's cream cheese and white chocolate pie with a tart lemon topping, but with an easy microwave preparation. Use no less than a 9" cooked dough or graham cracker crust to accommodate the filling. Also, use the best quality lemon curd you can find or prepare your own. Give yourself time for the cream cheese to soften or the mixture will become grainy. Chill time not included. Note: If using the graham cracker crust to gain a more crisp texture I highly recommend to bake the crust about 5-10 minutes. I like Realtor's suggestion of a Vanilla Wafer crust. Also, see her easy and eggless recipe for Lemon curd recipe #429423.

2 cups purchased lemon curd (or homemade)
1 1/3 cups white chocolate chips
