Tips:

Use fresh key limes for the best flavor. If you can't find key limes, you can use regular limes, but the flavor will be slightly different.
Grate the zest of the limes before juicing them. This will help to release the essential oils and give the torte a stronger lime flavor.
Use a food processor to grind the graham crackers into fine crumbs. This will help the crust to hold together better.
Press the graham cracker crumbs into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Make sure the crumbs are evenly distributed and firmly packed.
Bake the crust for 10 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. This will help to set the crust and prevent it from becoming soggy.
While the crust is baking, make the filling. Beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth. Then, beat in the eggs one at a time. Finally, stir in the lime juice and zest.
Pour the filling onto the cooled crust. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the center of the torte is set.
Let the torte cool completely before serving. You can also chill it in the refrigerator for several hours or overnight.

Conclusion:

This frozen key lime torte is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time. The combination of the tart key lime filling and the sweet graham cracker crust is irresistible.
