Just right for when guests drop in unexpectedly like they do around here.
2 premade pie crusts
1 T. lemon juice
1 (8 oz.) cream cheese
½ c. sugar
Place bottom crust on aluminum foil on cooking pan. Mix cream cheese, lemon juice and sugar well. Spread on bottom crust. Place second crust on top and crimp edges. Push foil up to crimped edges. Cut four slits in top crust. Bake at 425°F for 25 minutes. Top pie with powdered sugar, water and vanilla glaze. No clean up is needed as you just throw away the aluminum foil and put the cooking pan away.
A multitude of thanks go out to the good folks who helped me with everything from achieving authenticity to not giving up on me throughout the process of putting this book together.
To my cohorts on the Southern Porch, thank you for helping me get the details right. Thanks to my princess pals—Lynn Bulock, Sharon Gillenwater, and Diane Noble—for their encouragement, laughter, and listening. Thanks to Bill for his input on Memphis–style ribs and to Denise Camp for all the little tidbits of local color she came up with whenever I hit a snag. Also to the friends and family members who shared recipes: Nancy Henneke, Patje Lentz, Janella Price, Jody Henneke, Maxine Shorter (my mama, who was able to share by way of notes in the cookbook—the one with the cover almost burned off!—she passed on to me before she died).
Luanne Jones is southern born and bred. She’s the author of THE SWEETHEARTS OF THE TWILIGHT LANES.
