LEMON CHEESE PIE RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Blend the milk and softened cream cheese together until smooth.
• Add the lemon juice and blend until thickened.
• Pour into prepared crust and refrigerate at least 1 hour.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• If using refrigerated pie dough, lightly roll it out to a 12-inch circle, then transfer it to a 9-inch pie plate, trimming the pastry, leaving a 1/2-inch overhang around the edge of the plate. Flute the edges, then line the pastry shell with a double layer of heavy-duty foil.
• Bake for 8 minutes, then remove the foil & bake another 5 minutes, before removing to a wire rack to cool.
• In a large saucepan, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch & salt, then stir in the water until blended.
• Bring to a boil, then cook & stir for 2 minutes or until the mixture is very thick.
• Remove the pan from the heat & stir in the butter, lemon zest & food coloring. Carefully stir in the 1/2 cup of lemon juice, before letting this mixture cool for about 1 hour, bringing it down to room temperature.
• In a large mixing bowl, carefully beat the cream cheese & powdered sugar until smooth, then fold in the whipped topping & the last 1 teaspoon of lemon juice.
• Spread this cheese mixture onto the baked crust, then top that with the lemon filling. Refrigerate for 6 hours or until the top is set, before slicing.
