Lemon Cream Pie
A simple and satisfying lemon cream pie, perfect for a weeknight dessert. This recipe uses readily available ingredients and straightforward techniques.
Combine all Crust ingredients in a bowl and press into a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool.
In a saucepan, whisk together all Filling ingredients (except butter) until smooth. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbly. Remove from heat and stir in butter.
Pour filling into cooled crust. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly onto the surface of the filling to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Just before serving, whip Heavy cream and Powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread over pie.
