Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 c graham cracker crumbs
2 Tbsp sugar
1 stick plus 3 tablespoons butter
12 oz cream cheese
1 1/8 c powdered sugar
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 c chopped walnuts
1 large container Cool Whip, 16 oz
12 oz Trader Joe's lemon curd (or brand of your choice)

  • 2. Blend together well the powdered sugar, cream cheese, and vanilla. Spread on completely cooled crust.
  • 3. Sprinkle chopped walnuts over cream cheese mixture.
  • 4. Spread the whipped topping over the walnuts. You will not need to use the whole container of topping.
  • 5. Place pie in freezer for 30 to 45 minutes until whipped topping is firm enough to spread the lemon curd on top of it.

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown evenly. I think I might have needed to bake it for a few minutes longer.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling.

I'm not a huge fan of lemon desserts, but this pie was surprisingly good. The filling was creamy and the crust was flaky.
