Key Lime Pie - Sweets & Treats

Sarah · 10-06-2006, 01:56 PM

Ok, here it is

Crust

I just use the already made graham cracker crust you can buy at any grocery store

Filling

5 egg yolks
1 can of sweetened condensed milk (I use fat free condensed milk and it doesn't taste any different)
2/3 cup of key lime juice

First I put the egg yolks in a bowl and mix it well. Then I pour in the condensed milk while I am mixing the yolks. Beat for about a minute or two, until the air bubbles are gone. Then pour in the key lime juice while the mixer is still going. Mix for another 2 minutes. Make sure a majority of the air bubbles are gone. Then pour filling into pie crust. Bake at 325 for 15 minutes. Cool for 1 hour, and then put it in the refrigerator for 3 hours. Serve with whip cream or just by itself

Cat, it HAS to be key lime juice. Not regular lime juice

I use bottled key lime juice. I always have to special order it from Florida, since they don't carry it up here.

You can use regular key limes, but it takes forever to squeeze them.
