Description

A refreshing dessert that perfectly balances sweet and tart flavors with its zesty key lime filling and creamy texture.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup fresh key lime juice
  • 4 large egg yolks
  • Lime slices for garnish, as needed
  • Whipped cream, optional, as needed


Instructions

  1. Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well mixed. Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a pie dish to form the crust.
  2. Whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and egg yolks in another bowl until smooth.
  3. Pour the filling into the prepared crust and spread evenly.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until set.
  5. Serve chilled, garnished with lime slices and whipped cream if desired.

Notes

Use fresh key limes for the best flavor and be sure to let the pie chill thoroughly for the best texture.
