Time 2h25m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 graham crackers
1/3 cup salted butter, melted
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup lemon curd
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup blackberries
1/4 cup raspberries
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves
1/3 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

  • For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Break the graham crackers, add them to a food processor and process to fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and granulated sugar and process until well combined; the texture should be that of dry sand.
  • Using the back of a measuring cup, press the crumbs firmly into a 9-inch round pie dish. Put the pie dish on a baking sheet and bake until slightly golden, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool while making the filling.
  • For the filling: In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the cream, powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff. Set aside.
  • To a clean mixing bowl, add the lemon curd, cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk and beat until smooth. Gently fold 3/4 cup of the whipped cream into the lemon curd mixture until combined.
  • Pour the filling into the cooled pie shell. Top with the remaining whipped cream and use the back of a spoon to spread it and make peaks. Freeze, uncovered, for at least 2 hours. (If storing longer, after 2 hours in the freezer remove, cover and return to the freezer. Store for up to 48 hours in advance. If freezing overnight or longer, remove from the freezer 10 to 12 minutes before slicing.)
  • For serving: If desired, top with the blackberries, raspberries and mint. Dust with powdered sugar.

MAMA'S LEMON ICEBOX PIE



Mama's Lemon Icebox Pie image

I found this recipe for ZWT9, and am so wanting to make it very soon. I found this on a site " A Cajun Down Under " --Stories of a Cajun girl living in Sydney Australia. She has adapted this recipe for Australian Ingredients and states -- I've had to make one change to suit Australian ingredients as there is no such thing as Graham Cracker Crust here. Mama used the ready made crust, but I've had to make my own.

MAMA'S LEMON ICE BOX PIE



Mama's Lemon Ice Box Pie image

This pie is made with bottled lemon juice. I've never tried it with fresh. Bottled juices usually have added lemon oil and lemon essence. I use the Pompeii Lemon Juice that comes in the little yellow round ball. It's really a good ice box pie.

Provided by Susan Feliciano

Categories     Pies

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 5

14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
3 egg yolks
1/2 c bottled lemon juice
1 graham cracker or baked pie crust (9-inch)
1 container cool whip or redi-whip

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325°. In mixing bowl, beat egg yolks until smooth. Gradually blend in the condensed milk and lemon juice. Beat slowly until smooth. Pour into prepared pie crust.
  • 2. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool at room temperature for 1 hour. Chill in refrigerator at least 2 hours or until serving time. Top with cool whip or whipped cream. Refrigerate leftovers.

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons. Fresh lemons will give your pie a brighter, more flavorful taste. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but be sure to use 100% lemon juice, not a lemon-flavored drink.
  • Grate the lemon zest finely. This will help to release the lemon's oils and give your pie a more intense flavor.
  • Don't overmix the filling. Overmixing the filling will make it tough. Stir just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a graham cracker crust that is at least 9 inches in diameter. A smaller crust will be too small for the filling, and a larger crust will make the pie too thin.
  • Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set.
  • Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. This will help to balance the tartness of the lemons.

Conclusion:

Mama's Lemon Icebox Pie is a classic summer dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy, tangy filling and graham cracker crust, this pie is the perfect way to cool down on a hot day. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and delicious dessert, give this recipe a try!
