Description

A refreshing no-bake dessert with creamy lemon filling and crispy graham crackers, perfect for warm days.


Ingredients

  • 1 box graham crackers
  • 2 (3.4 oz) boxes instant lemon pudding
  • 3 ½ cups milk
  • 1 (8 oz) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup lemon juice
  • Zest of 1 lemon


Instructions

  1. Combine the pudding: In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant lemon pudding mix and milk until well combined. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
  2. Add whipped topping: Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until you get a smooth and creamy texture.
  3. Make the lemon mixture: In a separate bowl, mix together the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
  4. Combine mixtures: Add the lemon mixture to your pudding mixture, stirring until everything is fully combined.
  5. Layer with graham crackers: In a 9×13 inch dish, layer the bottom with graham crackers.
  6. Spread half of the lemon pudding mixture over the graham crackers.
  7. Add another layer of graham crackers and the remaining pudding mixture on top.
  8. Chill before serving: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) before serving.

Garnish with lemon zest or whipped cream for enhanced presentation. The dessert keeps well in the refrigerator for up to five days.
