Lemon Icebox Pie



Technically, this could be considered a no-bake cheesecake, but I'm calling it a lemon icebox pie.

Ingredients
  • 1 pre-made graham cracker or shortbread cookie pie crust
  • 8oz cream cheese at room temperature
  • 14oz sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4-1/2 cup of lemon juice
  • Lemon zest for extra flavor (optional)
Instructions
This filling can be mixed by hand using a spoon or whisk, but it will be easier to mix it using either an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer. 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the condensed milk and lemon juice.
  2. Add softened room-temperature cream cheese to mixture.
  3. Mix until smooth.
  4. Remove lid from pie crust.
  5. Add filling to pie crust.
  6. Cover pie and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours.
  7. Serve.
