Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Lemon Jell-O Pie.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, blend together crushed graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter until the mixture is uniformly moistened.
Step 3
Firmly press this delightful blend into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan to create a sturdy crust.
Step 4
Bake the crust in your preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until it achieves a lovely golden hue.
Step 5
Once baked, take it out and let it cool for 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to settle.
Step 6
While the crust cools, dissolve gelatin powder in boiling water, stirring until completely dissolved, then set it aside to cool for another 15 to 20 minutes—just don’t let it set yet.
Step 7
In a separate bowl, whisk together the cooled gelatin mixture with sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese, lemon zest, and lemon juice.
Step 8
Beat this luscious mixture for 3 to 4 minutes until it’s smooth and well combined.
Step 9
Pour the creamy filling into your cooled graham cracker crust and place the pie in the refrigerator to chill until set, which should take about 2 hours.
Step 10
Enjoy the anticipation as your pie transforms into a refreshing treat!.
