Instructions

Make the Crust:

Mix the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl until well combined.
1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup granulated sugar, 6 tablespoon unsalted butter
Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish, ensuring an even layer on the bottom and sides.
Chill in the refrigerator while making the filling. At this point, you could also bake your crust in a 350F oven for 10 minutes if you prefer a crunchier crust

Prepare the Filling:

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
8 oz cream cheese
Add the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract (if using). Mix until fully combined and silky smooth. Pour the filling into the chilled crust (or cooled down crust if baked) and spread evenly.
