For a richer crust, use European-style butter with a higher fat content.
Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
If you prefer a less sweet dessert, reduce the amount of sugar in the cream cheese layer by 1/4 cup.
For an extra burst of lemon flavor, add the zest of one lemon to the lemon pudding mixture.
Store leftover Lemon Lush in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
