Key Lime Pie


I hate to admit it, but I honestly don’t remember having any key lime pie more than a few years ago. Then I tried a good key lime pie, and was determined to make an authentic and delicious pie. Me and my husband love this pie during the summer, but you can also have this during the winter too 


Crust
1 1/3 c graham cracker crumbs
¼ c sugar
¼ c butter, melted


Filling
1-14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
3 egg yolks
½ c key lime juice (you can also use fresh lime juice if you can’t find key lime juice)

Mix the sugar and graham cracker crumbs. Add butter to graham cracker/sugar mixture and mix to evenly distribute the butter. Press into the bottom and sides of a 10” pie plate. In a large bowl, beat the yolks with the sweetened condensed milk. Then slowly add the key lime juice until fully combined. Spoon the filling into the pie shell and chill for at least 1 hour.
