Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 5 tablespoons melted butter
  • 14 ounces can of sweetened condensed milk (about 400 grams)
  • 4 limes (zest and juice, or use 5 or 6 key limes)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream (30% or more)
  • lime slices and whipped cream for serving (optional)

Instruction

  • Add the graham cracker crumbs to a bowl along with the melted butter. Stir well to combine.
  • Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of an 8-inch tart pan and up the sides of the pan. Set aside.
  • Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a bowl and add the juice and zest of the 4 limes.
  • Slowly pour in the heavy whipping cream, mixing with a hand mixer (or use your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment) while you continue to pour the whipping cream in a steady stream.
  • Continue mixing on medium-high speed for 2-3 more minutes until the filling becomes slightly thicker and glossy.
  • Pour the filling into the prepared crust and refrigerate for about 6 hours or overnight.
  • Slice and serve, topping each slice with a dollop of whipped cream and some lime slices and zest (if desired).
