Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 5 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 can Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.5 cups Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- 2 tablespoons Tequila (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Orange liqueur (such as Triple Sec or Cointreau, optional)
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest (for garnish)
- 3 whole Fresh strawberries (for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use the bottom of a glass to smooth it out. Place in the freezer to chill while preparing the filling.
In a blender or food processor, puree the fresh strawberries until smooth.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the strawberry puree, sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, tequila, and orange liqueur until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the strawberry mixture until no streaks remain, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm.
Before serving, allow the pie to sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften slightly. Garnish with lime zest and fresh strawberries.
Slice and serve chilled. Return any leftovers to the freezer.
