Church Supper Lemon Icebox Pie

A bright, old-fashioned dessert that tastes like sunshine on a plate, featuring a creamy lemon filling atop a buttery graham cracker crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 prepared graham cracker crust, 9 inches
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk, 14 ounces
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 to 3 lemons)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 2 large egg yolks, room temperature
  • 1 cup whipped topping, chilled

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and position a rack in the center so the pie cooks evenly.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and egg yolks until smooth.
  3. Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  4. Bake the pie for 12 to 15 minutes, until the center is set but may jiggle slightly.
  5. Let the pie cool to room temperature, then chill for at least 4 hours.
  6. Top with whipped topping before serving, spreading or piping it.
  7. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. Bring egg yolks to room temperature for a smoother filling.
