Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice (or lime juice)
  • 1 can (14 ounce) sweetened condensed milk
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 1 tub (8 ounce) Cool Whip Frozen Topping (thawed)
  • FOR THE VANILLA WAFER CRUST
  • 1 box (12 ounce) vanilla wafer cookies (you will use about 24-30 wafers depending on the pan size you will be using)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • The most important part of this recipe, is to leave the cream cheese out for a couple hours at room temperature. The cream cheese will become soft and smooth. The importance of this is to create a smooth texture. Not doing so, will create horrible lumps of cream cheese that will ruin the flavor of this pie

  • FOR THE CRUST

  • Step 1: Mix all crust ingredients until it sticks together. Pat into the pan (anysize pan you like to use).

  • FOR THE FILLING

  • Step 2: When your cream cheese is softened enough, in a mixing bowl, mix all ingredients. NOTE: the lemon/lime juice must come last. The reaction of the citrus juice will start to harden your mixture almost immediately.

  • Step 3: On the low speed of you hand mixer, blend well. Around 2 minutes of so is plenty, just make sure all ingredients are incorporated. Immediately pour mixture into the prepared crust.

  • Step 4: Refrigerate for an hour to and hour and a half. Serve chilled and enjoy
