Ingredients

  • 2 boxes 3.4 ounces each lemon instant pudding mix
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 16 ounces heavy whipping cream
  • 6 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 ready-to-use 9 ounce 10 inch graham cracker crust
  • Zest of a lemon for garnish optional

Instructions

  • Combine lemon pudding mix and milk in mixing bowl. Whisk for about 2 minutes or until the pudding thickens.
  • Spread half of the mixture onto the prepared crust.
  • Beat the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar with a mixer for about 4 minutes or until stiff peaks form.
  • Add half of the whipped cream to the pudding mix and whisk together.
  • Spread over the lemon pudding.
  • Top with the remaining whipped cream.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours.
  • Add some lemon zest or lemon slices for garnish before serving.

Notes

  1. Proper Pudding Mixing: Ensure that the lemon pudding mix and milk are thoroughly combined to achieve a smooth and creamy texture. Whisk the mixture for the recommended 2 minutes, or until the pudding thickens. This ensures that the pudding sets properly and provides a luscious filling for the pie.
  2. Layering Technique: To create distinct layers in the pie, spread half of the lemon pudding mixture onto the Graham cracker crust before adding the whipped cream layer. Incorporating half of the whipped cream into the lemon pudding mixture helps to lighten the filling and creates a creamy texture. Spread the remaining whipped cream on top for a decadent finish.
  3. Chilling Time: Allow the assembled pie to chill in the refrigerator for at least 3-4 hours before serving. Chilling allows the flavors to meld together and the pie to set properly. This ensures that each slice holds its shape when served and provides a refreshing and creamy texture. Garnish with lemon zest or slices just before serving for a vibrant and citrusy touch.
