Description

Million Dollar Pie is a rich and creamy no-bake dessert featuring a luscious blend of cream cheese, sour cream, lemon juice, and whipped topping nestled in a crisp graham cracker crust. Enhanced with optional shredded coconut and chopped pecans, this pie requires minimal prep and chilling time, making it a perfect make-ahead treat for any occasion.

Ingredients

Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice
  • 1 cup whipped topping

Crust

  • 1 pre-made graham cracker crust

Toppings (Optional)

  • 1/4 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans

Instructions

  1. Beat Cream Cheese and Sugar: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, creating a smooth base for the filling.
  2. Add Sour Cream and Lemon Juice: Mix in the sour cream and lemon juice thoroughly until well combined, adding a tangy flavor and creamy texture to the filling.
  3. Fold in Whipped Topping: Gently fold the whipped topping into the mixture until the filling is smooth and creamy, taking care not to deflate the whipped topping.
  4. Fill the Crust: Pour the prepared filling into the pre-made graham cracker crust and smooth the top evenly with a spatula for a neat finish.
  5. Add Toppings: Sprinkle shredded coconut and chopped pecans over the top if desired, adding texture and extra flavor.
  6. Chill the Pie: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours to set properly, or overnight for the best flavor and consistency.
  7. Serve: Slice the chilled pie and serve cold, enjoying its creamy, tangy, and satisfying taste.

Notes

  • For best results, chill the pie overnight to allow flavors to meld and the filling to firm up completely.
  • Optional toppings like shredded coconut and pecans add texture but can be omitted for a simpler pie.
  • Use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream for optimal creaminess and flavor.
  • The pie is best served chilled and should be stored in the refrigerator.
  • This recipe is quick to prepare but requires several hours to chill.
