Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup Heavy cream, cold
- 0.5 cup Key lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 1 tablespoon Key lime zest (optional, for garnish)
- 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar.
Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles damp sand.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk while continuing to beat until the mixture is fully combined and creamy.
Add the cold heavy cream to the mixture and whip until slightly thickened and smooth.
Pour in the freshly squeezed Key lime juice, mixing until fully incorporated. The filling will thicken naturally as the lime juice reacts with the other ingredients.
Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is firm and set.
Before serving, garnish with Key lime zest and whipped cream if desired.
Slice and enjoy this creamy, tangy no-bake Key Lime Pie!
