Ingredients

Instructions

  • Whisk the pudding mix and milk in a medium bowl until thickened, about 2–3 minutes.
  • In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Stir in lemon zest.
  • Fold the pudding into the cream cheese mixture, then gently fold in half the whipped topping.
  • Line the bottom of an 8x8-inch dish with graham crackers, trimming as needed to fit.
  • Spread half the lemon cream mixture over the graham crackers. Repeat with another graham cracker layer and the remaining lemon cream, then top with the remaining whipped topping.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Garnish with lemon zest, berries, or lemon slices before serving.

Notes

Chill Time may vary and is not included in the recipe total. Chill for at 4-6 hours or overnight.
