Delicious Lemon Cheesecake Pie


If you love cheesecake and lemons, you will love this pie!

For The Captain and I, it is a keeper.  The filling was slightly tart, slightly sweet with a creamy texture and so delicious.  Topping with whipped cream before serving is like icing on a cake.  I would not have it any other way!

The recipe is adapted from the website Real Simple . . . the photo is from Real Simple.  It shows a pre-made crust, but I wanted a graham cracker crust to make it more like a cheesecake.  Great choice!



Ingredients:

    • Graham Cracker Crust
    • 2-8 oz bars cream cheese (softened)
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1 cup sour cream
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1/3 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice
    • 1 tsp vanilla
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • whipped cream



Directions:

Combine all ingredients until smooth and pour into crust.

Bake at 325 degrees 40 to 50 minutes (filling will be set, but a bit wobbly).

Before serving, top with a layer of whipped cream.
