00:00This pie requires zero baking.
00:03You're welcome.
00:04I love this recipe because it doesn't require
00:06heating in my oven.
00:07It is hot enough already without that.
00:09But also because it has a ginger snap crust.
00:12Most lemon icebox pies call for graham crackers,
00:15but I love the punch of ginger this crust has.
00:17It pairs perfectly with the creamy, tangy lemon filling.
00:21Pulse ginger snaps with butter
00:23until it resembles coarse sand,
00:24then press into the bottom and up the sides of a pie plate.
00:27Freeze until solid while you make your filling.
00:30Beat softened cream cheese with sweetened condensed milk,
00:33lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.
00:36Let unflavored gelatin bloom in some water
00:39and then beat that into your filling
00:41before folding in some whipped cream.
00:43Add it all to your frozen crust
00:45and chill until set in the fridge about two hours.
00:48Garnish with more whipped cream, lemon zest curls,
00:50and crushed ginger snaps for a pie
00:52that's almost too pretty to eat.
