Preparation

1

Prepare the Crust

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes until set. Remove from oven and let cool.

2

Make the Filling

In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, fresh lemon juice, lemon zest, and egg yolks until smooth and creamy.

3

Assemble the Pie

Pour the lemon filling into the cooled graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until set.

Serve

Once set, top with whipped cream before serving. Slice and enjoy your refreshing lemon icebox pie!
