1 cup ice water

  • Key Lime Filling: In a bowl, mix together the yolks, sweetened condensed milk, key lime zest and juice. Pour it into the shell and bake in a preheated 325 degree F oven for 18 minutes and just set. Set on a rack to cool, refrigerate until chilled.

This key lime pie was a hit at my last dinner party. The coconut crust was a unique and delicious twist on the classic graham cracker crust. The filling was tart and creamy, and the whipped cream topping was the perfect finishing touch!
