Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 0.75 cup Lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 tablespoon Lime zest
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- 1 Lime slices (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar.
Add the melted butter to the graham cracker mixture and stir until the mixture is evenly moistened.
Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan, forming an even crust. Use the back of a spoon or the bottom of a measuring cup to press it down firmly.
Place the crust in the freezer to chill while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, add the sweetened condensed milk, heavy whipping cream, lime juice, lime zest, and vanilla extract.
Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed until it becomes creamy and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the prepared crust from the freezer and pour the lime filling into the crust, spreading it evenly.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in the freezer for at least 6 hours or until fully set (overnight is recommended).
Once the pie is frozen, remove it from the freezer and allow it to soften at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Garnish with whipped cream and lime slices, if desired. Serve immediately and store any leftovers in the freezer.
