Key Lime Pie
4 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature 1 tablespoon grated lime zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 egg yolk
1/2 cup fresh lime juice (about 4 limes; if using key limes, use about 1/3 cup of juice, add more to taste) whipped cream (for garnish)
sliced limes (for garnish)
Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Using electric beaters, mix cream cheese, zest, and salt until creamy. Add sweetened condensed milk and mix until incorporated. Add egg yolk, mix until combined. Add lime juice and stir until well blended. Mixture will thicken slightly. Pour filling into your choice of prepared crust (pastry, crumb, sugar cookie) and bake until set, about 20 to 30 minutes. Cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours before serving. Garnish with whipped cream and sliced limes.
Serves 8.
Sadie’s Favorite Crumb-Crust
11/2 cups animal cracker crumbs (not the frosted kind) 3 tablespoons brown sugar
6 tablespoons butter, melted
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix ingredients together and press into a 9-inch pie tin. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.
The recipe is from Josi S. Kilpack's website and she is the author of the Lemon Tart culinary murder mystery books. All the books have these to DIE for recipes in them and she has them for free download on her website. The books are a really fun read too! We love this pie and I actually made it for Murphy and Jacobson the same night we did the Taquitos.
