Ingredients:

Crust-

2 cups graham cracker crumbs

1/2 cup butter (melted)

1/4 cup sugar

Filling-

3/4 cup sugar

8 oz. cream cheese (softened)

1 (3 oz.) package lemon jello

3/4 cup water (boiling)

1 tsp lemon extract

1/4 cup lemon juice

1 (12 oz) can evaporated milk (chilled)

Instructions:

Place a large bowl and beaters in the freezer to chill.

Mix the crust ingredients and press them into a 9x13" pan.

In a bowl mix together cream cheese and sugar until fluffy.

In a separate bowl mix together jello and boiling water. Then add the lemon juice and lemon extract and mix well. Set it aside and let cool.

Once bowl and beaters are chilled, whip evaporated milk on high until it thickens and holds a peak. Turn the beater to low and slowly mix in cream cheese, followed by the lemon jello mixture.

Pour filling over crust in the pan, and top with sliced fresh strawberries (If desired). Chill in the refrigerator until filling sets. Cut into squares.
