THE BEST KEY LIME PIE
A Floridian classic, this bright, creamy and tart dessert is so simple to make it will become a regular at your summer get togethers. Key lime juice is the star of this pie, adding a slightly more floral note than regular limes. But not to worry if you can't find fresh Key limes or the bottled juice - you can use standard limes with equally delicious results.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- For the crust: Stir together the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and salt with a fork in a medium bowl. Pour in the butter and continue to stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Transfer the crumb mixture to a 9-inch glass or metal pie dish and spread into an even layer. Use a 1/4 measuring cup or small glass to firmly press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Bake until it is dry-looking and lightly browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on a wire rack while you make the filling.
- For the filling: Combine the sweetened condensed milk and sour cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until combined, about 1 minute. Add the lime juice, egg yolks, salt and lime zest and continue to beat until the batter is smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour into the graham cracker crust. Bake until the pie is mostly set but jiggles slightly in the center, 15 to 20 minutes. Let the pie cool to room temperature on a wire rack, then refrigerate to set and chill completely, at least 2 hours, but preferably overnight.
- For the whipped cream topping: Combine the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. Transfer the whipped cream to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe the topping decoratively on top of the pie. Alternatively, dolloped the whipped cream on slices of pie. Sprinkle with lime zest.

Steps:
- Beat 1 cup of the heavy cream into stiff peaks in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, 2 teaspoons of the lime zest and lime juice. Fold the lime juice/sweetened condensed mixture into the whipped cream.
- Spoon the filling into the pie crust and spread out evenly. Place in the freezer until solid and set, 3 to 4 hours.
- Take the remaining 1 1/2 cups of whipping cream and add the confectioners' sugar. Whip until soft peaks. Spoon the whipped cream over the frozen pie. Garnish with the remaining key lime zest and some curled lime slices if desired.
KEY LIME PIE
Steps:
- For the graham cracker crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Break up the graham crackers; place in a food processor and process to crumbs. If you don't have a food processor, place the crackers in a large plastic bag; seal and then crush the crackers with a rolling pin. Add the melted butter and sugar and pulse or stir until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and side of a pie pan, forming a neat border around the edge. Bake the crust until set and golden, 8 minutes. Set aside on a wire rack; leave the oven on.
- For the filling: Meanwhile, in an electric mixer with the wire whisk attachment, beat the egg yolks and lime zest at high speed until very fluffy, about 5 minutes. Gradually add the condensed milk and continue to beat until thick, 3 or 4 minutes longer. Lower the mixer speed and slowly add the lime juice, mixing just until combined, no longer. Pour the mixture into the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the filling has just set. Cool on a wire rack, then refrigerate. Freeze for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
- For the topping: Whip the cream and the confectioners' sugar until nearly stiff. Cut the pie into wedges and serve very cold, topping each wedge with a large dollop of whipped cream.

Steps:
- For the crust: Pulse the flour, pecans, shortening and butter in a food processor until it looks like coarse cornmeal. Then with the processor running, drizzle in the cold vodka 1 tablespoon at a time until it forms into a ball. Take it out and divide in half. Place on a piece of plastic wrap and pat each piece into a disk. Wrap and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Roll out 1 piece of pie crust on a lightly floured surface slightly larger than your pie tin. (Reserve the other half for another use.) Place into the tin, trim the edges and crimp the edges decoratively. Place a piece of parchment inside the pie shell, fill with pie weights or dried beans and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the pie weights and continue to bake until the pie crust is golden brown, another 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the crust to cool completely.
- For the filling: Combine the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, sour cream, egg yolks and lime zest in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed for 2 minutes. Scrape the filling into your cooled pie crust.
- Bake until the filling only wiggles a bit in the center when you gently shake the pan back and forth, 15 to 20 minutes. Don't allow the pie to brown.
- Cool the pie on your counter for at least 15 minutes, then place in the freezer for an hour.
- For the whipped cream: Put the cream cheese, powdered sugar, tequila and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment. Whip on high speed until creamy and smooth. Scrape down the mixing bowl. Add the cream and start on low speed to incorporate, and then turn to high speed and whip until stiff peaks form.
- Scrape the whipped cream into a pastry bag fitted with a decorative tip and decorate your chilled pie. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh lime zest over top.
TRADITIONAL KEY LIME PIE
I have been making this pie for many years. Every time that I serve it, people say "this is what a key lime pie is supposed to taste like". And they are right. I have tried those pie recipes using cream cheese or cool whip, but they are not authentic key lime pies. If you want the "real deal", this is it.

EASY KEY LIME PIE
Not usually my kind of recipe--I am ordinarily kind of a purist (i.e., I'd rather make REAL key lime pie with REAL key limes)--but this is simply fantastic. My friend who lives in my apartment complex made it and gave me the recipe.
