Welcome To Gal Pal
Whip this desert up in minutes and your guests will thank you!
You are throwing a last Minute dinner party and need a quick and easy dessert to whip up. Tarry’s fast 5 minute Lemon pie is a no brainer. If you like key lime better than lemon then use limes instead. Citrus is the name of the game.
Tarry brought me a piece of this pie before I has seen the recipe. The pie was refreshing, rich with a zing of lemon. The crust was baked to perfection. It was just hard enough but not baked. When I learned how simple the recipe was, I had to share it with you all.
Seriously, we should all have a fail-proof recipe in our back pocket for last minute dinner parties or just for fun. One of the things that I like best about this Lemon Pie is that you can serve it chilled or frozen. I personally like it better frozen.
Thaw the pie for about 20 minutes before you want to serve it… less if it is a very hot day. I thaw it just until it softens a little but still has the consistency of ice cream.

1 and 1/4 graham cracker crumbs
1/4 C sugar
Tbsp melted unsalted butter

18 oz block cream cheese (not low fat)
