    • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs

  • Filling

    • ½ cup white sugar
    • 🍋 ⅔ cup lemon juice, or more to taste
    • 🧀 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, or as needed
    • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

STEPS

1

Blend melted butter into graham cracker crumbs in a bowl using a fork or electric mixer until combined. Press 1 tablespoon of the crust mixture into the bottom of 12 dessert dishes or glasses.

2

Dissolve sugar into lemon juice in a bowl using a spoon. Set aside.

3

Whip cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer on low speed until combined. Increase to medium speed and mix until smooth. Slowly add heavy cream while continuing to mix on medium speed until combined. Blend on high speed for 2 minutes.

4

Reduce mixing speed to medium; incorporate lemon-sugar mixture until well blended. Add extra lemon juice if desired. Whip on high speed until fluffy and holds its shape when blades are lifted, about 3-4 minutes.

5

Spoon or pipe the filling into prepared crusts. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

6

Before serving, sprinkle lemon zest, and garnish with a quarter lemon slice and mint leaf if desired.
