Ingredients
For the chocolate graham-cracker crust:
- 1 1/2 cups finely crushed graham crackers about 8 large rectangles
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of kosher salt
- 8 tablespoons butter melted, still warm
For the lemon and lime filling:
- 1 ounce package cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- Juice of 1 lemon about 1/4 cup
- Juice of 1 lime about 2 tablespoons
- 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon grated lime zest
- 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- whipped cream and fresh blueberries for topping
Instructions
- To make the crust, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan. In a food processor or with a rolling pin, finely crush the graham crackers until they’re the texture of sand. Mix well the graham crackers with the cocoa, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract and salt. Stir in the warm, melted butter until a dark dough is formed.
- Pat the dough into the pie pan, using your hands, a measuring cup or a spoon to get it even. Bake for 7 minutes and then let the crust cool for one hour.
- To make the filling, in a blender mix together the cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, lime juice, lemon zest, lime zest, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Pour into the cooled crust, and refrigerate covered with plastic wrap for at least 2 hours to set the filling.
- Serve with whipped cream and fresh blueberries on top.
Notes
- Serve with whipped cream and any fruit you like. I enjoy blueberries with this pie but raspberries would be awesome too.
