Ingredients
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pastel gel food colorings (pink, blue, yellow, green)
Whipped cream and sprinkles for topping (optional)
Instructions
1. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter, then press the mixture into a 9-inch pie plate and chill for at least 30 minutes.
2. Beat softened cream cheese until smooth, then mix in sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until just combined.
3. Divide the filling evenly into separate bowls and stir a different gel food coloring into each.
4. Drop alternating spoonfuls of the colored fillings into the chilled crust.
5. Gently drag a knife or toothpick through the filling in a few motions to create a marbled swirl effect.
6. Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight, until the filling is firm.
7. Garnish with optional whipped cream and sprinkles before serving.
Notes
For a smooth, lump-free filling, ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature. Use gel food coloring for vibrant colors that won’t thin the filling. The pie can be made 1-2 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
