Martha Washington Pie Recipe

Ingredients

1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened

2 eggs, beaten

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons grated lemon zest

1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar for rolling

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

In a large mixing bowl combine cream cheese, eggs, and lemon zest. Beat until smooth and pour into crust.

Roll out confectioners' sugar and cut into small squares 1/3 of the way thick. Roll each square into a 6-inch circle, then into a flowery crescent, then into a 9-inch circle.

Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center comes out clean.
