Time 12h20m

Yield 6-8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

12 graham crackers
1/3 c. brown sugar
6 tbsp. melted butter
3/4 c. heavy cream
1 14-oz can sweetened condensed milk
12 oz. cream cheese
2 tsp. freshly grated lime zest (from 1 lime)
1/2 c. key lime juice
Whipped cream and lime zest, for serving

Steps:

For the crust: Place the graham crackers and brown sugar in the bowl of a food processor. Process until finely ground, about 1 minute. With the processor running, slowly pour in the melted butter. Process the crumbs until they are the texture of coarse sand. Transfer to a deep 9-inch pie plate. Using the bottom of a measuring cup, press the crust into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Press firmly to pack and make an evenly thick crust. Place in the freezer for 20 minutes.
For the filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer using a whisk attachment (or using a hand mixer with beater attachments), whisk the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Transfer to another bowl and set aside.
In the same stand mixer bowl, place the sweetened condensed milk, cream cheese and lime zest. Using the paddle attachment, beat on medium-high speed until smooth and well mixed, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed. Turn the mixer to low speed and slowly add the key lime juice. Increase the speed to medium and mix until well combined. Remove from the stand mixer and gently fold in the whipped cream.
Transfer the filling to the pie crust and smooth into an even layer. Refrigerate for 12 hours.
Serve topped with additional whipped cream and lime zest.

Tips:

For the best results, use fresh key limes. Key limes have a more intense flavor than regular limes, and they will give your pie a brighter, more citrusy taste.
If you don't have any key limes, you can use regular limes. Just be sure to use twice as many regular limes, as their flavor is not as concentrated.
Make sure the cream cheese is softened before you start making the pie. This will help it blend smoothly with the other ingredients.
Don't overbeat the cream cheese and sugar mixture. Overbeating can cause the mixture to become grainy.
Be careful not to overcook the egg yolks. Overcooked egg yolks will become rubbery.
Let the pie chill for at least 4 hours before serving. This will give the flavors time to meld and the pie time to set.

Conclusion:

Aunt Catfish's Key Lime Pie is a delicious and refreshing no-bake pie that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling, tart key lime flavor, and graham cracker crust, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dessert, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
