Easy Lemon Cream Cheese Pie
Step 1: Preheat and Prep
Set your oven to 350°F and ensure your cream cheese is super soft—it should feel like butter under gentle pressure.
Step 2: Make the Filling
Beat the cream cheese until smooth, then add eggs, sugar, vanilla, and half the lemon zest. Mix until velvety and lump-free.
Step 3: Assemble
Pour the filling into the graham crust and smooth the surface.
Step 4: Bake It
Bake for 30–35 minutes. Look for set edges and a slightly jiggly center—it’ll firm up beautifully as it cools.
Step 5: Whip Up the Topping
