Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup orange juice
- 0.25 cup lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.25 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon orange zest
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 6 sheets graham crackers
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker sheets broken into crumbs and melted unsalted butter.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x5-inch loaf pan, forming a crust. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice, orange zest, lemon zest, and lime zest until well combined.
In a separate large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium-high speed to whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form, about 2–3 minutes.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the citrus mixture in three additions until fully combined and smooth.
Pour the mixture over the graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Cover the loaf pan tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in the freezer for at least 6 hours or overnight until fully frozen.
When ready to serve, remove from the freezer and let the dessert sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly. Slice and serve immediately.
