LEMON DREAM PIE RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Provided by sleepy-writer

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 single recipe pie crust or store bought crust
1 - 8 oz. cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
Zest of 1 lemon
10 oz. lemon curd
8-16 oz. Cool Whip (depending on how full you want your pie)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees Make a single pie crust or using a store bought crust place in a 9 inch pie dish and make a pretty fluted edge or other design. Prick the bottom and sides of the crust with a fork. Place a piece of parchment into the crust and fill with pie weights or dry beans to help the crust keep it's shape. Bake for 10 minutes Remove the parchment with pie weights carefully and set aside. Continue cooking the crust an additional 2 - 3 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Set aside to cool completely (about 1 hour). When the crust is completely cool make the filling. In a medium bowl beat the softened cream cheese with the sugar until smooth. Add lemon zest and curd and beat until completely smooth. Here is the lemon curd I use :) Next add the container of Cool Whip and mix until incorporated. Pour into cooled crust and cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 - 4 hours before serving. Serves 8 - 10 Enjoy!

Tips:

  • For the best results, use fresh lemons. This will give your pie a brighter, more vibrant flavor.
  • If you don't have a lemon zester, you can use a fine grater to remove the zest from the lemons.
  • Be sure to cream the butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the mixture and make your pie light and airy.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the pie tough.
  • Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set. This will usually take about 45-50 minutes.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.

Conclusion:

Lemon Dream Pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its bright, citrusy flavor and creamy, dreamy filling, this pie is sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a delicious and refreshing dessert, give Lemon Dream Pie a try.
