Key Lime Pie Filling

Method

Instructions

1

Prepare the Crust

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter and sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool.

2

Make the Filling

In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Gradually add the Key lime juice, Crème de Cacao, Licor 43, and Midori. Mix until well combined.

3

Bake the Pie

Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until set but still slightly jiggly in the center. Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature.

4

Chill and Serve

Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours before serving. Slice and serve chilled, optionally garnished with whipped cream and lime slices.
