Key Lime Pie

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups graham crumbs
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar (packed)
• 5 Tablespoons salted butter (melted)
• 1 cup fresh key lime juice
• 2 Tablespoons key lime zest
• 28 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 2 large egg yolks
• 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350°F.

2. 2

   In a medium bowl, mix together graham crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter. Press the crust mixture into a 9-inch pie pan.

3. 3

   Bake the graham crumb crust for 10 minutes.

4. 4

   While that is baking, prepare the key lime filling. Using an electric hand mixer, combine the key lime juice, zest, sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, 2 egg yolks, and powdered sugar.

5. 5

   Pour the filling into the baked crust.

6. 6

   Bake the pie for 15 minutes. It should be just slightly jiggly in the center. If the pie is very jiggly, leave it in and check it every 5 minutes.

7. 7

   Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate the pie for at least another 2½ to 3 hours.

8. 8

   Serve with whipped cream and lime zest or lime slices if desired.
