Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 8

⅓ cup butter
1 (16.5 ounce) package lemon bar mix
¼ cup finely chopped blanched almonds
1 ½ cups cold water
1 (.25 ounce) package unflavored gelatin
2 egg yolks, beaten
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
3 drops yellow food coloring

Steps:

  • To Make Crust: In a 10 inch skillet over medium heat, melt butter or margarine. Stir in dessert bar crust mix and almonds. Cook 4 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture begins to brown and crumble.
  • Reserve 2 tablespoons of crust mixture for topping. Use the back of a fork to press remaining crust mixture into an ungreased 9 inch deep dish pie plate. Cool completely.
  • To Make Filling: Pour cold water into a 2 quart non-aluminum saucepan. Sprinkle gelatin over water and allow to soften 5 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, stir dessert bar filling mix into gelatin, mixing until smooth. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir for 1 minute, then remove from heat.
  • Place egg yolks in a medium bowl. Whisk 1/4 cup of hot lemon mixture into egg yolks. Whisk egg yolk mixture back into rest of lemon filling. Return mixture to heat. Boil and stir 1 minute. Remove from heat. Cover and refrigerate.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and 1/4 cup of lemon filling (may be slightly warm), beating until smooth. Gradually beat in remaining filling mixture until smooth. Mix in food coloring if desired.
  • Pour filling into crust. Cover and chill at least 4 hours before serving. Sprinkle reserved almond mixture over top just before serving.

Tips and Conclusion

Tips:

  • For a creamier pie, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • If you don't have a lemon zester, you can use a microplane grater.
  • Be sure to whisk the eggs and sugar together until they are thick and pale yellow. This will help to prevent the pie from curdling.
  • Bake the pie until the center is just set. The pie will continue to cook as it cools.
  • Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help the flavors to develop and the pie to set properly.

Conclusion:

This creamy lemon pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and always a hit with guests. The combination of sweet and tart flavors is perfectly balanced, and the creamy texture is simply divine. If you are looking for a delicious and refreshing pie recipe, look no further than this creamy lemon pie.
