Ingredients

• 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk
• 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream
• 0.75 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 2 teaspoons lemon zest
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 2

Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan or tart pan. Make sure the crust is evenly distributed. Place the pan in the freezer to chill while you prepare the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.

Step 5

Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture, being careful not to deflate the cream. Mix just until fully incorporated.

Step 6

Pour the lemon filling into the chilled crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Smooth the top.

Step 7

Cover the torte with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and freeze for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, until fully set and firm.

Step 8

Before serving, remove the torte from the springform pan. Let it sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes to make slicing easier.

Step 9

Garnish with additional lemon zest or whipped cream, if desired. Slice and serve immediately.
