This is such a wonderful tasting lemon pie. And, w/o all the fuss of merinque etc. Really easy/peasy with your step-by-step instructions. I added just a touch more lemon also. Made this for A Taste of Yellow (May08) Livestrong month!! Proud of you Mary~

Very easy recipe. I added more lemon juice, because it just didn't taste like lemon pie. My family loves it. I have made it 2 times already. 
Thanks!

Now just how great can a lemon pie get? Well, about as great as this one ~ makes for a very OUTSTANDING & tasty dessert! Your directions were easy to follow, & I especially liked folding the egg white INTO the filling! Thanks for such a great keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Cupid's Choice Beverage Tag game]

I made this with a homemade crust Means' Classic Pie Crust and it was wonderful. I made this to specs except I substituted sour cream for the light cream (as I was out of light cream), and although that is probably what caused the cracking on top of the pie, It didn't bother the flavor one single bit. This is like a light, airy, and very fluffy lemon cheesecake. Great job NoraMarie, thanks for posting.
