JELL-O® LEMON PIE

Jell-O® Lemon Pie image

I found this lemon pie recipe a couple of years ago and made it for a dinner party. There were about 4 other pies and this is the only one that was gone. I have been making it ever since and because lemons are great all year 'round. All holidays or any day is a wonderful occasion.

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 ½ cups crushed graham crackers
½ cup white sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup boiling water
1 (3 ounce) package lemon-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®)
1 (14 ounce) can chilled sweetened condensed milk
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, at room temperature
1 large lemon, zested and juiced

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Mix graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter together in a bowl. Press crust mixture into a 9-inch pie pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let cool, 15 to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine boiling water and gelatin mix. Let dissolve and cool, 15 to 20 minutes. Do not let set.
Blend cooled gelatin mixture, condensed milk, cream cheese, and lemon zest and juice together in a bowl. Beat until well mixed, 3 to 4 minutes. Add mixture to the cooled pie crust and refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
