There's no need for meringue on this lemon pie. Luscious layers of tangy lemon cream bake inside a flaky crust and a sprinkling of sugar and nutmeg is all that's needed on top!
1 (15-ounce) package refrigerated pie crust (2 crusts)
CREAM CHEESE FILLING
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 egg
LEMON FILLING
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons margarine or butter, softened
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
2 eggs, beaten, reserving 1 teaspoon for topping
TOPPING
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Heat oven to 375°F. In small bowl, combine all cream cheese filling ingredients at medium speed until well blended. Spoon into crust-lined pan. In same bowl, combine all lemon filling ingredients at low speed. Carefully pour over cream cheese filling. Top with second crust; trim edges if necessary.* Cut slits in top crust. Brush with 1 teaspoon reserved egg. Combine 1 teaspoon sugar and nutmeg; sprinkle over crust.
