Key Lime (or Not) Pie
- 1 recipe Graham Cracker Crust (page 23), prebaked
- 4 egg yolks
- 1 rounded tablespoon grated lime zest
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice, made with Key limes or regular limes
- Preheat the oven to 325F.
- Whisk the egg yolks and lime zest together in a bowl for about 2 minutes, until a light greenish yellow color.
- Whisk in the milk, then the lime juice, and set aside at room temperature for about 5 minutes, until the filling thickens and the whisk leaves tracks in it.
- Spread the filling evenly in the crust.
- Bake for about 15 minutes, until almost completely set.
- The filling should wobble a bit when the pan is jiggled.
- Cool to room temperature on a wire rack, then chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours before slicing.
