Categories     dessert

Time 4h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/2 cups oyster crackers
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1 tablespoon freshly grated lemon zest
One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
4 large egg yolks
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
Fresh whipped cream, for serving
Freshly grated lemon zest, for serving

Steps:

  • For the crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Add the crackers and sugar to a food processor and pulse a few times. Add the melted butter and lemon zest, then pulse until the crumbs look like wet sand, about 30 seconds. Press crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 8-inch pie pan, then chill for at least 15 minutes. Bake the crust until the edges start to brown, 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • For the filling: Add the condensed milk and egg yolks to a medium bowl and whisk until the yolks are incorporated. Add the lemon juice and whisk until fully combined, another 1 to 2 minutes. Pour into your prepared pie shell and bake until the filling has nearly set in the center, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
  • Top with whipped cream and freshly grated lemon zest and serve.

SAND PUDDING RECIPE



Sand Pudding Recipe image

This is a recipe I shared last summer, but it was a big hit so I am sharing it here today and making up a batch for my family! The ingredients were simple as were the instructions to create this dessert that will have people wondering if it is REALLY sand or not. I brought it to our family reunion last Saturday after the Walk and it was quickly gobbled up! My daughter asked if I would make it again the next day. I'm pretty sure she single handedly ate half the pail herself. ;) Seriously though, this was very quick & easy dessert to put together with a LOT of wow factor included. This is a super quick & easy summer time dessert that is sure to be the talk of the party!

Tips:

- For a classic sand pie crust, use a combination of graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press the mixture into a pie plate and chill it before filling. - For a more decadent crust, use a mixture of crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter. This will give the pie a rich, chocolatey flavor. - If you don't have any graham crackers or Oreo cookies on hand, you can make a simple crust using flour, sugar, and butter. Just combine the ingredients in a bowl and press the mixture into a pie plate. - For the filling, you can use any type of pudding mix you like. Just follow the package directions for preparing the pudding. - Once the pudding is set, top it with whipped cream, fruit, or chocolate chips. - For a no-bake sand pie, use a combination of cream cheese, Cool Whip, and sugar. Just beat the ingredients together until smooth and then spread the mixture into a pie crust. - Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving.
