Red, white, and blue pie with crisp cereal crust and zesty lemon filling for a festive summer treat.
Ingredients:
  • 2 1/2 cups Golden Grahams™ cereal
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup butter, melted
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 4 oz (about 1 2/3 cups) Cool Whip frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 25 fresh blueberries (about 1/4 cup)
  • 17 fresh raspberries (about 1/2 cup)
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh strawberries
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F and finely crush cereal using a food processor.
  • Combine crushed cereal and brown sugar in a medium bowl using a fork. Gradually stir in melted butter until fully incorporated. Press mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9-inch pie plate.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until beautifully golden. Allow to cool perfectly for about 30 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, use an electric mixer on medium speed to beat the cream cheese until smooth. Mix in the granulated sugar. Add sour cream, vanilla, lemon peel, and lemon juice; continue beating until well combined. Gently fold in the whipped topping. Chill in the refrigerator until ready to use in the pie filling.
  • Evenly spread the delicious filling over the cooled crust. Then, cover and let it set in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
  • Create a flag design on the pie by arranging blueberries in the upper left corner to resemble stars, then alternate rows of raspberries and strawberry slices to create stripes. Serve fresh and store covered in the fridge.
