Ingredients:
- 1.5 cups (150g) graham cracker crumbs
- 1/3 cup (75g) unsalted butter, melted
- 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1 can (14 oz / 397g) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup (120ml) fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, chilled
Instructions:
- Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a small bowl. Stir until the mixture looks like wet sand.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes until toasted. Let cool completely.
- Place softened cream cheese into a high-speed blender and pulse until smooth.
- Add sweetened condensed milk and fresh lemon juice. Blend on medium-high for 45-60 seconds until the mixture is glossy, pale yellow, and uniform.
- Pour the filling into the cooled graham cracker crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours (or overnight) to allow the filling to set.
- Whip the chilled heavy cream to stiff peaks and dollop onto each slice before serving.
