*Recipe* No Bake Lemon Cheesecake Pie

My dear friend Jodie loves to send me cards and sometimes she will throw in a recipe card for me with a favorite recipe on it.  A few months ago, she sent me this recipe, and I have been waiting and excited to make it!  I finally had a reason on Saturday, for a get together with some friends.  I knew it would be delicious, and that was definitely the consensus amongst the group! It isn't really a Fall recipe but isn't anything lemon delicious anytime?

Ingredients

Crust

• about 30-35 (1 pkg) Lemon Oreos
• 6 Tbsp butter

Filling

• 3 fresh lemons
• 2-8oz pkg cream cheese (room temp)
• 3/4 of a 14oz can Sweetened Condensed Milk

Directions

Crust

• Crush entire package of Oreos in a blender and put into a large Ziplock bag.
• Melt butter and add to the Oreos.
• Mix well in bag (squish it around for a while).
• Dump into a deep pie dish and press evenly onto bottom and sides.

Filling

• In a large bowl, mix cream cheese until all clumps are gone with a mixer. 
• Add condensed milk, juice from the 3 lemons plus a bit of zest.  I actually also used about 3 drops of Food Grade lemon essential oil to make it extra lemony. 
• Slowly mix for about 5 minutes.
• Pour into prepared pie plate.
• Add some zest on top and refrigerate two hours. 
• Enjoy!
