Receta Key Lime Pie
This has been and always will be one of my favorite citrus pies. I fell in love with it when I moved to Florida. I actually had my first piece of Key Lime Pie in Key West the first time I was there. I have been hooked ever since. If y’all haven’t had a key lime pie, you definitely need to try it. They are so refreshing and tart. I topped mine with some home made whipped cream and slivered almonds. I think this will be a keeper for y’all.
Ingredients:
- 2 packages graham cracker – crushed
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 3 (14 ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk
- 5 egg yolks
- 2 cups key lime juice (I used about 43 key limes, you can buy store bought)
- zest of two key limes
- Sweetened whipped cream
In a small bowl, combine cracker crumbs, brown sugar and melted butter. Press mixture about a 1/4 inch thick in the bottom and sides of a deep dished pie pan.
In the bowl of your stand mixer, mix condensed milk, egg yolks, lime zest and lime juice on low speed until well-blended (it should be creamy in color and slightly thickened) 2-3 minutes.
Pour into prepared pie shell and bake in preheated 350 degree oven 18 to 24 minutes.
Remove from oven and let cool.
Refrigerate 6 to 8 hours before serving.
Garnish with sweetened whipped cream.
