Key Lime Pie Recipe

CRUST

1 1/4 c graham cracker crumbs

5-6 T butter, melted

2 T sugar

FILLING

14 oz sweetened condensed milk

3 egg yolks

2 t grated lime zest

1/2 c lime juice

Preheat oven to 350. Grease a pie pan. Mix crust ingredients together and press into bottom of pan. Cover and chill. Beat yolks until pale and fluffy, then add condensed milk and mix. Add lime zest and juice. Pour filling into crust and bake 10 min or until filling is set. Cool then chill until ready to serve.

Notes:

• Grease the dish way more than you think. This is good because 1) there's no way anything will stick, especially in the corners, and 2) you'll get that lovely buttery crust!
• When it says "until filling is set," that means that when you shake the pan the filling appears more gelatinous rather than liquid-y.
• Feel free to add more/less lime flavoring as you see fit!
