Graham Cracker Crumbs: For the freshest taste. Crush whole graham crackers yourself. It’s easy to do. And makes a world of difference in the crust’s flavor and texture.

Brown Sugar: Both light and dark brown sugar work well. Dark brown sugar will give your crust a richer, deeper flavor. Thanks to its higher molasses content.

Unsalted Butter: This binds the graham cracker crumbs together. Melting it first. Ensures an even mixture.

Evaporated Milk: Adds a creamy texture. Without the heaviness of regular milk or cream. It also helps the pudding mix set properly.

Instant Lemon Pudding Mix: This is key for the pie’s structure. And its delightful lemon flavor. Make sure to use instant pudding. For the best results.

Cream Cheese: Use full-fat, softened cream cheese. For a rich and creamy filling. Letting it come to room temperature before beating. Helps achieve a smooth, lump-free mixture.

Lemonade Concentrate: Provides the pie’s vibrant, tangy lemon flavor. Make sure it’s completely thawed. So it blends smoothly. With the other ingredients.
