Method
Preparation
Make the crust
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from oven and let cool.
Prepare the filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. Add lemon juice and lemon zest, mixing until well combined. Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully incorporated. Spread the filling over the cooled crust.
Make the topping
In a separate bowl, whisk the instant lemon pudding mix with milk until thickened. Spread the pudding mixture over the cream cheese filling. Top with the remaining whipped topping, smoothing it out evenly.
Chill
Refrigerate
Cover the dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set properly.
