Kelly's Rich and Creamy Key Lime Pie image

My dear sweet hubby say's that mine is the best Key Lime Pie he's ever had! I was SO HAPPY!! He used to live in Florida, and said it tastes just like the pie you get down there. (I was very proud and relieved to hear that! I was really nervous to make him one!) Hope you give my recipe a try. It's truely a wonderful, easy and...

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

6 egg yolks, lightly beaten
2 (14 oz.) cans sweetened condensed milk
1 c key lime juice, i use nellie and joe's in the bottle
1 graham cracker crust, i make my own but you can sub a keebler 10" one for ease if prefered
cool whip, ready whip or sweetened whipped cream
maraschino cherries, or sliced strawberries and/or kiwi slices for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325ยบ. In medium bowl, gently whisk egg yolks. Slowly whisk in sweetened condensed milk. Slowly whisk in key lime juice. *Do not over mix, this will create bubbles. Just whisk and stir gently til all ingredients are mixed together well. Pour into 9" deep dish homemade graham cracker crust. Pop into oven for 40-45 minutes. *My oven takes 44 minutes exactly. The edge of pie will just START to slightly poof up and the edge of pie will also be very SLIGHTLY a pale golden brown. Just very lightly browned. The pie also will no longer jiggle. Let cool. Pie will set up perfectly as it cools. Refrigerate at least 4-6 hours or overnight. Pie gets even better the next day! :)Serve with whipped cream topping. Garnish if desired. VERY rich and creamy! *You can save the egg whites and make a meringue top if preffered. But we like the cool, smooth creaminess of sweetened whipped cream much better than meringue. ;) **If preferred, you can also bake this pie in a 9" deep dish pastry crust. ***If a green color is desired, just add 2 drops green food coloring. I used to do this, but now I just leave it natural colored.
  • 2. Tip: I once used fresh key limes and will never do that again. It took forever and you honestly couldn't even tell the difference from the bottled juice.

This was my first time making key lime pie, and it turned out great! The filling was creamy and tangy, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this pie again.

This pie was just okay. The filling was a bit too tart for my taste, and the crust was a bit too crumbly. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I would not recommend this recipe. The filling was too runny and the crust was too crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The filling was a bit too runny for my taste, but the flavor was good. The crust was also a bit too crumbly. Overall, I think this recipe needs a bit of tweaking.
