Time 5h10m

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/3 cups graham cracker crumbs
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 (3 ounce) package lemon Jell-O gelatin
1 cup boiling water
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk, chilled

Steps:

  • To prepare the crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar and butter. Press mixture onto the bottom of a 9- or 10-inch springform pan (if you have enough, press up the sides a little, too). Bake for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • To prepare the filling: Meanwhile, in a heatproof bowl, combine Jell-O and boiling water, stirring well to combine. Add lemon juice and allow to cool.
  • With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla and add to the cooled Jell-O mixture.
  • Whip the evaporated milk until it holds peaks and gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.
  • Pour into graham cracker crust, smooth the top and refrigerate for 4 or more hours, or until set.
  • NOTE: The evaporated milk needs to be very cold. Ann Schoenberg refrigerates it the night before. If you are not that organized, you can put it in the freezer for a few hours (don't forget about it). For added lemon flavor, add some zest to the mixture. You can also refrigerate the crust instead of baking it.
