I found this Jell-O lemon pie recipe a couple of years ago and made it for a dinner party. There were about four other pies, and this was the only one that was gone. I have been making it ever since, and lemons are great all year round. All holidays or any day is a wonderful occasion.

Ingredients

Pie Crust:

  • 1 ½ cups crushed graham crackers

  • ½ cup white sugar

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Pie Filling:

  • 1 cup boiling water

  • 1 (3 ounce) package lemon-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O)

  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, chilled

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature

  • 1 large lemon, zested and juiced

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Mix until evenly moistened; press into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and let cool, 15 to 20 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, combine boiling water and gelatin powder. Let dissolve and cool, 15 to 20 minutes. Do not let set.

  5. Combine cooled gelatin mixture, condensed milk, cream cheese, and lemon zest and juice in a bowl; beat until well mixed, 3 to 4 minutes. Pour filling into cooled crust; refrigerate until set, about 2 hours.
