Lemon Supreme Pie image

A friend and I often visit a local restaurant for pie and coffee. When they stopped carrying our favorite lemon supreme pie, I got busy in the kitchen and created this version, which we think tastes even better! The combination of the cream cheese and tart lemon is wonderful. -Jana Beckman, Wamego, Kansas

This pie was a bit too tart for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I will use less lemon juice. Otherwise, the pie was very good.

This pie was easy to make and so delicious! I used a pre-made graham cracker crust, which made it even easier. The lemon filling was tart and sweet, and the meringue was light and fluffy. I will definitely be making this pie again.

I've made this pie several times and it always turns out great. It's a bit time-consuming to make, but it's worth it. The lemon flavor is very strong, so if you don't like that, you may want to reduce the amount of lemon juice. Otherwise, this pie is
