Ingredients

  • 1 9-inch store-bought graham cracker crust homemade works too
  • 3 cups whipped cream separated (we used store bought cool whip)
  • 1 box instant lemon pudding* 3.4 oz size box
  • 16 oz. cream cheese softened
  • 1/2 cup lemonade concentrate we used Minute Maid, thawed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
  • optional topping- lemon zest

Instructions

  • Begin by adding 2 cups of whipped cream and the instant lemon pudding to a large bowl and mix with an electric mixer or stand mixer over medium/high speed until combined. The mixture will end up being thick and fluffy. Set aside. 
  • Add cream cheese to a separate large bowl and mix on medium/high speed until the cream cheese is completely smooth creamy. 
  • Next, add the lemonade concentrate and vanilla into the cream cheese and beat on low until the mixture is completely combined.
