Ingredients
  

For the crust

  • 1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers (about 20-25)
  • 6 Tbsp melted butter

For the filling

  • 3 cups sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 2/3 cup lemon juice (about 3-4 lemons)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Stir well to combine, then press into the bottom of a 9-inch round pie dish. Bake for 8 minutes.
  • While the crust is baking, combine the filling ingredients in another bowl and beat on medium speed for 4-5 minutes. Pour into the prepared pie crust and bake for 10 minutes. Allow to cool on the stovetop for 30 minutes, then chill in the fridge for at least an hour. Top with whipped cream once cool, and enjoy!
