For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

For the Filling:

  • 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice about 2-3 lemons

For Garnish:

  • Lemon slices
  • Additional whipped cream
  • Fresh mint leaves optional

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined and press firmly into a 9-inch pie pan. Place in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the filling.
  • Make the Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, fresh lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined.
  • Assemble the Pie: Pour the lemon filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
