Ingredients:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 box sugar-free lemon pudding mix (usually 1.4 oz size)
- 1/2 cup lemon juice (fresh or bottled)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 pecan pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
- Whipped topping (sugar-free, for topping)
Instructions:
-
Melt the Cream Cheese:
- In a microwave-safe bowl, microwave the cream cheese for about 20-30 seconds until it’s softened and smooth. You can also use a hand mixer to blend it into a smooth consistency.
-
Prepare the Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, sugar-free lemon pudding mix, lemon juice, and vanilla extract.
- Use an electric mixer to blend everything together until smooth and well-combined. The mixture will start to thicken as the pudding mix activates.
-
Pour into Crust:
- Pour the creamy lemon filling into your pecan pie crust. Spread it evenly and smooth the top with a spatula.
-
Chill:
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 30 minutes to allow the filling to set and firm up. You can also let it chill for longer if you prefer a firmer texture.
-
Top with Whipped Cream:
- Once the pie has set, top it with a generous amount of sugar-free whipped topping.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy the refreshing, creamy lemon flavor in every bite!
