Serving something familiar with a twist is fun for a crowd. Everyone knows what a lemon meringue pie is but turning it into a dip makes it a tasty conversation piece. With all the flavors and half the fuss, this dip is great for showers, movie nights and holiday parties.

Ingredients

Dip:

3 cups (about 12 ounces) finely crushed graham crackers (I like Trader Joe’s Old Fashioned Cinnamon Grahams)

Kosher salt

Two 8-ounce tubs whipped cream cheese

One 10- to 12-ounce jar lemon curd

One 8-ounce tub whipped topping

4 ounces vanilla meringue cookies, coarsely crushed (about 1 3/4 cups)

Dippables:

Apple wedges

Pretzel thins

Stroopwafels

Graham crackers

Directions

  1. For the dip: Add the graham cracker crumbs to a glass 8-by-8-inch glass baking dish or 9-inch pie plate and lightly press crumbs down with the bottom of a dry measure cup. Sprinkle the crumbs lightly with salt.
  2. In a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment or a bowl with a hand mixer, blend the cream cheese, lemon curd and whipped topping until fluffy and smooth. Using a rubber spatula, spread the lemon curd mixture over the graham cracker base and smooth the top.
  3. Sprinkle the crushed meringue cookies over the dip and gently press them into the top. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
  4. For the dippables: Serve the dip with your choice of apple wedges, pretzel thins, stroopwafels and/or graham crackers.

Cook’s Note

You can make this dip a day ahead and store, covered, in the fridge; just reserve the crushed meringue topping and add it 1 to 2 hours before serving.
