Key Lime Pie (Tart)
- 1-1/4 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 2-1/2 Tablespoons Sugar
- 6 Tablespoons Butter, Melted
- 14 ounces, fluid Sweetened, Condensed Milk
- 4 whole Egg Yolks
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Key Lime Zest
- 1/2 cups Freshly Squeezed Key Lime Juice
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a food processor, combine graham cracker crumbs (or whole graham crackers), sugar, and melted butter. Pulse a few times, then scrape down the sides and repeat once more.
- Pour the crumb mixture into your tart shell (or pie dish) and press along the bottom and up the sides.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes. Remove your crust from the oven and let cool while you prepare the filling.
- In the bowl of your mixer, combine the sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks, salt, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix until blended.
- Once combined, pour your mixture into the cooled tart shell. You may have to move the shell around a little to make sure the filling is spread out evenly. Bake for 15 minutes, remove from the oven, and let cool.
- Add sliced key limes to the top for decoration. Let this cool in the fridge for a few hours (overnight is even better), and voila! All I need is some fresh whipped cream and a cup of coffee to accompany this and I'm good to go.
