    This Luscious Lemon Chiffon Pie recipe is an oldie, but goodie no-bake dessert recipe that is great any time of the year!

    Who's ready to dive into this tangy, light and creamy Lemon Chiffon Pie filling in a graham cracker crust with whipped topping?  Speaking of pie, here's a goodie--Easy Chocolate Pudding Pie!

    There are lots of versions of this pie, but I found this lemon pie using sweetened condensed milk to be super easy to whip together and make ahead of time.  It does require a mixer and I used a prepared graham cracker pie crust, because I already had it in the cupboard.

    However, you can easily make your own version of pie crust you desire or here's a graham cracker crust if you want to make one by scratch.

    How to Get the Most Lemon Juice from your Lemons

    Fresh lemon juice is essential for this recipe, because it is the only flavor, so it has to be the star attraction!

    Allow the lemons to come to warm to room temperature to get more juice to extract from each lemon and roll them around on your counter, pressuring them with a firm hand. You can also zap them in the microwave for 15-20 seconds, before juicing them.  I love this lemon juicer!!  It works like a charm!  And a good lemon zester is always a great handy tool to have as well!

    Here are 10 tried-and-true tricks for maximizing the amount of juice you're able to get out of citrus fruit—no juicer required.

    Tips for Whipping Egg Whites

    • It is essential that your bowl and beaters are clean and dry, without any residue on them, so egg whites whip properly.  Use a large bowl that is metal, ceramic or glass instead of plastic.
    • Stiff peaks - When stiff peaks form, the peaks will be firm and not fall over.
    • Soft peaks-  When soft peaks form, the egg whites will be all white and lifting the beater will cause soft peaks that slump over.
    • Egg whites should not be over beaten, so be cautious you don’t go too far.

    How to Store Lemon Chiffon Pie

    • Fridge: Store pie tightly covered with plastic wrap or aluminum foil in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
    • Freezer: Freeze for up to 2 months. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap or foil and store in a sealed freezer safe bag.
