Instructions
Graham Cracker Crust
- Lightly spray a 8" - 9.5" pie pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter in a small bowl. Press the crumb mixture into the prepared pie pan. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to really press the crust down. Chill pie crust for at least 30 minutes before filling.
Lemon Cheesecake Filling
- In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
- Add pudding mix and beat until creamy and combined.
- Slowly add milk, beating until creamy, thick and smooth.
- Beat in lemon zest.
- Pour mixture into prepared pie shell.
- Chill for at least 3 hours. The pie will set up firmly during this time.
Whipped Cream
- In a large bowl, whip heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Add in sugar and extract and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
- Spread whipped cream on top of chilled pie.
- Top with additional lemon zest.
- Garnish with lemons, mint, and raspberries before serving, if desired

Notes
- A store bought graham cracker crust can be used instead (as I did in the video) if you prefer.
- The graham cracker crust can be baked if you prefer. Preheat oven to 375F. Bake for 7 minutes.
- Instead of using freshly whipped cream, you can also use frozen whipped topping - just thaw first!
