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.

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Mix graham cracker crumbs with sugar and melted butter. Press into 9 inch pie plate and bake for 5 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
• Separate 2 of the eggs, placing the two egg whites into a mixing bowl. Reserve the yolks in another bowl.
• To the yolks, add one whole egg, lime juice and sweetened condensed milk. Whisk until smooth. With clean mixer blades or a whisk attachment, beat the egg whites with salt and cream of tartar until stiff, but not dry. Fold whites into filling mixture. Pour filling into partially baked crust.
• Bake in preheated 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) for 10 to 15 minutes or until set. Let cool at room temperature, then freeze 4 hours to overnight. Just before serving, whip cream to form stiff peaks. Serve decorated with whipped cream and lime slices.

FRESH AND TANGY KEY LIME PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix condensed milk, sour cream, lime juice, and lime zest. Mix well and pour into pie crust.
• Bake in preheated oven for 8 minutes, taking care not to brown! Chill pie for at least two hours before serving.
• I have found it easiest making it to these quantities, as it uses one can of condensed milk. It makes one very well filled pie crust and leaves a little mix to spare. I can, however, easily make three pies with the double quantity.
• Key Limes are difficult to find outside of Florida. In the US you may be able to find Nellie & Joe's Key West Lime Juice, which is an excellent bottled Key Lime juice. Alternatively you can use the juice of regular (persian/mexican) limes. Preferably freshly squeezed or else a good bottled product. If you squeeze limes, place them in the microwave at full power until very warm (approx 60 to 90 seconds) and let them cool to luke warm. That way the juice will come out very easily.
