OMG! This is the best lemon pie ever! My DH and my little girl LOVED this. It was such a big hit with them. It's smooth, creamy and delicious. It was also really, really easy to make. I used a store bought nilla wafer crust and I also made my own lemon curd with my recipe recipe #429423. I let my filling chill for 1 1/2 hours before topping it with the lemon curd layer. I had no problem at all spreading it over top. Thanks, GailAnn for another keeper.

Easy & delicious! The only trouble I had was the lemon curd would not spread OVER the cream cheese mixture - I ended up with kind of a marbled effect. I would suggest either refrigerating for awhile before topping with lemon curd or just mixing it all together at the start. An easy & delicious dessert that I will make for my guests in Maine! Made for Aussie Swap 5/10.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
