This dessert features a creamy lemon filling swirled with fresh raspberries, all set in a graham cracker crust. The pie takes about 20 minutes to prepare and requires a few hours in the freezer to set, serving 8 people.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- Additional raspberries and lemon slices for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, 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.
- Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. In another bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture until smooth.
- Add Raspberries: Carefully fold in the fresh raspberries, being cautious not to break them apart too much.
- Fill the Crust: Pour the lemon raspberry filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm.
- Serve: Once set, remove the pie from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with additional raspberries and lemon slices if desired.
