For an extra burst of lemon flavor, add 1 teaspoon of lemon zest to the filling. Garnish with fresh whipped cream, lemon slices, or a sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs before serving. If you don't have a microwave, soften the cream cheese at room temperature for about 30 minutes to an hour. For a smoother filling, use a hand mixer instead of whisking by hand. Make sure your cream cheese is truly softened, or the pie will have a lumpy texture.

Feb 17, 2025My pie didn't set properly, I think I needed to chill it for longer. I'll try again!
