- Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon mixture until fully combined.
- Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top.
- Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4–6 hours or until firm.
- Before serving, let pie sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to soften slightly. Garnish with lemon slices if desired.
