- Graham Cracker Crust
- Key Lime Filling
- White Chocolate Topping
- Garnish
- Preheat the oven to 350 u0b0F.
- Line the square baking pan with foil. Extend over all side and spray with a nonstick cooking spray.
- Crust
- Break up the graham crackers and place them in a food processor and process to crumbs.
- Add the melted butter and sugar and pulse or stir until combined.
- Press the crumb mixture evenly and firmly into the bottom and sides of the pan.
- Bake until set and golden; about 8-10 minutes.
- Cool on a wire rack while making the filling.
- *Do not turn off the oven.
- Filling
- Using an electric mixture with the wire whisk attachment, beat the egg yolks and lime zest at high speed until very fluffy; about 5 minutes.
- Gradually add the condensed milk and continue to beat until thick; 3 or 4 minutes longer.
- Lower the mixer speed and slowly add the lime juice. Mix just until combined. Don't go longer.
- Then pour the mixture into the crust. Spread to corners. Smooth the surface with a rubber spatula.
- Bake until the filling has just set and the edges begin to pull away slightly from the sides; can be from 15 minutes to 20 minutes.
- Cool on a wire rack and then refrigerate for about 2 hours.
- Topping
- In a medium saucepan, bring the milk and cream to a gentle boil.
- Chop the white chocolate.
- Add the white chocolate to the saucepan and let it stand for 30 seconds to let it melt.
- Whisk the mixture until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Set the mixture aside to cool to room temperature for about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally until cool.
- Pour the cooled white chocolate mixture over the chilled bars. Using the spatula, spread it into an even layer.
- Freeze bars for at least 1 hour before cutting.
- Cutting
- Loosen the edges with a (paring) knife.
- Cut the bars into "x"-amount of squares.
- Then lift the bars from the baking pan.
- Garnish
- Place one lime slice (half-moon) on each square.
