For the filling:
Heat the oven to 350 F. First, make the crust. In a large bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers with ¼ cup sugar. Stir in melted butter and combine well. (My mom’s less-mess tip: crush the crackers with a rolling pin in a large re-sealable plastic bag, then add the sugar,
then the butter. Shake vigorously.) Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and along the sides of a standard 9-inch pie tin. Next, make the filling. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and ½ cup sour cream until smooth. Add eggs, sugar, vanilla, lemon juice, cornstarch and lemon zest and blend thoroughly. Pour the mixture into crust. Bake until the center is puffed, dry and lightly browned, about 30 minutes for a conventional oven (50 minutes for a woodstove in the original recipe). Let the pie cool until the surface flattens, about 10 minutes. Keep the oven on. In a medium bowl, use a spatula to blend the topping ingredients. Spread the mixture evenly over the pie and bake an additional 5 minutes. Remove the pie and let it cool completely. Refrigerate it overnight or for at least 5 hours before serving. Top with fruit or lemon curd if you like, but in our family, we think plain pie tastes fine! l
