Luscious Sour Cream Lemon Pie is bursting with just the right amount of sweet, tangy and tart lemon flavor in this creamy, yet rich phenomenal pie filling.
It’s perfectly suited for spring or summer via that sunshine, lemony, yellow color! Pretty!!
Sour Cream Lemon Pie has been around for awhile. It's simple to make, sure to please and it’s a stunner for any dinner party or family function.
Jaws will drop and there will be serious, serious major drooling. *drool* (told ya...) And that first bite? Well, you better get ready to dive in, because there will be no turning back.
You will want to finish that whole piece, and will be tempted for seconds, and thirds and don't count out fourths.
Don't say I didn't warn you. 🙂
