Homemade Whipped Cream Topping

This lemon cream pie is a must-make for lemon lovers--it's creamy, it's sweet, it's tart, and it tastes like sunshine!

unsalted butter (melted)

salt

milk

cornstarch

unsalted butter (at room temperature)

lemon zest

lemon juice (from 2 to 3 lemons)

heavy cream (very cold)

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Combine all crust ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir until the crumbs are evenly saturated with the butter.  Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.  (Really compress the crust—you want to be sure you have room for all of the filling.)

Bake the crust for 10 to 12 minutes, until the crust is just beginning to brown.  Remove from the oven and allow to cool while you work on the filling.

Crumb crust

Place the egg yolks in a small bowl and set it next to the stove.

Place the milk in a small saucepan over medium heat and cook for a few minutes, until milk is very hot but not boiling.  Add the  sugar and salt and cook, stirring often, until the sugar dissolves.  Remove from the heat.

Quickly whisk the cornstarch into the yolks until well combined.  Whisking the egg yolks constantly, slowly add 1/2 cup of the hot milk-sugar mixture.  Continue whisking until completely smooth and free of lumps of cornstarch.

Stir the egg mixture into the remaining milk-sugar mixture and set the pan over medium heat.

Whisking constantly, bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 30 seconds.  (It will be a very slow boil.)

Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, lemon zest, and lemon juice.  Pour into the crust and immediately top with plastic wrap,  pressing the wrap directly onto the surface of the filling.

Cool pie completely on a wire rack, then refrigerate until well chilled, at least 2 hours (or overnight).

Lemon filling

Once the pie has chilled, combine the heavy cream and powdered sugar in a medium mixing bowl.   Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until the cream holds stiff peaks.  Beat in the vanilla.

Spread the whipped cream over the chilled pie, then slice and serve.*

Easy Lemon Cream Pie (No Bake!)

When it comes to lemon desserts, my lemon cream pie is the perfect dessert for just about any occasion.  The light, creamy, sweet-tart custard is guaranteed to bring smiles to your table.

egg yolks (room temperature)

tbsp lemon juice (5-6 lemons depending upon the size and jucieness)

lemons (for garnish - optoional)

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Place the oven rack in the middle of the oven.

Pulse the graham crackers in a food processor to make fine crumbs (or buy ready-made graham cracker crumbs).

Add the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter to a medium bowl. Mix until well blended. If the crust is too wet, add additional graham cracker crumbs to the mixture.

Pour the graham cracker crumb mixture into a pie plate and press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate.

Place the crust on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the pie crust just begins to brown.

Remove the pie crust from the oven and place it on a wire rack to thoroughly cool.

Do not add the filling to the pie crust until completely cooled.

Graham Cracker Pie Crust

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Add the sweetened condensed milk and egg yolks to a medium bowl and whisk until smooth and creamy.You will use two cans of sweetened condensed milk, less 3 tablespoons.

Slowly whisk the lemon juice into the milk mixture.

Pour the lemon filling into the cooled pie crust and smooth the top using an offset (or rubber) spatula.

Place the pie on a sheet pan on the center rack of a preheated oven and bake until the edges are set, but the center still has a little jiggle.   Depending on your oven, it will take 15-18 minutes.

Place the pie on a wire rack to allow it to let it cool completely.

After the pie has cooled, cover it with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours. This will give the pie time to set so it can be sliced. If you have time, chilling the pie overnight will give you the best results.

Lemon Pie Filling

Add the heavy cream, sugar and vanilla to a stand mixer.

Whip the ingredients to stiff peaks. This process should be slow, starting on low speed and increasing the speed over about ten minutes.**This method is how you keep the whipped cream from breaking. The cream should be ice cold and as fresh as possible. Look for heavy cream with the longest expiration date.

Whipped Cream

Pipe the whipped cream around the edges of the lemon cream pie and garnish with fresh lemon circles cut in quarters.
