Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

⅓ cup butter
1 (16.5 ounce) package lemon bar mix
¼ cup finely chopped blanched almonds
1 ½ cups cold water
1 (.25 ounce) package unflavored gelatin
2 egg yolks, beaten
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3 drops yellow food coloring

Steps:

  • To Make Crust: In a 10 inch skillet over medium heat, melt butter or margarine. Stir in dessert bar crust mix and almonds. Cook 4 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture begins to brown and crumble.
  • Reserve 2 tablespoons of crust mixture for topping. Use the back of a fork to press remaining crust mixture into an ungreased 9 inch deep dish pie plate. Cool completely.
  • To Make Filling: Pour cold water into a 2 quart non-aluminum saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin over water and allow to soften 5 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, stir dessert bar filling mix into gelatin, mixing until smooth. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
  • Place egg yolks in a medium bowl. Whisk 1/4 cup of hot lemon mixture into egg yolks. Whisk egg yolk mixture back into rest of lemon filling. Return mixture to heat. Boil and stir 1 minute. Remove from heat. Cover and refrigerate.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and 1/4 cup of lemon filling (may be slightly warm), beating until smooth. Gradually beat in remaining filling mixture until smooth. Mix in food coloring if desired.
  • Pour filling into crust. Cover and chill at least 4 hours before serving. Sprinkle reserved almond mixture over top just before serving.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie didn't turn out right. The filling was runny and the crust was soggy.

This pie was a little too tart for my taste, but I think I just need to use less lemon juice next time.
