Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the crust

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

  2. 2

    Prepare the filling

    In another bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and egg yolks until smooth. Pour the filling into the cooled crust.

  3. 3

    Bake the pie

    Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until set.

  4. 4

    Make the topping

    In a mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the cooled pie and garnish with lime zest.
