I usually buy desserts (instead of making them), but once in awhile a no-bake recipe makes me feel like a fancy pastry chef (without the work). This is very special to me because it reminds me of my high school days hanging out at the NJ diner!
Growing up in NJ, you are tell people were you live by what exit you are off the highway, what mall you live near, and most importantly what diner you hang out at. In high school going to the diner was a cool thing to do (I would hang out the Manalapan diner). The NJ diners had the best desserts. The pies would live in a rotating glass case, welcoming you to a food wonderland! I loved loved loved the lemon pies. This creamy, tart, and crumbly pie brings me back memories of those fun nights. The best part is there are only five ingredients in my pie down memory lane.
Cooking Hack That Makes This Recipe So Easy:
- Get Store Bought Whipped Cream! No one will know and it makes this recipes sooo easy and faster.
- I freeze the crust instead of baking it! I find freezing makes it easier and eliminates the chance of burning the crust.
