Ingredients

• 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 5 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• 0.75 cups lime juice
• 1 tablespoon lime zest
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 0 lime slices (for garnish, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form a crust. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or a flat glass to press it firmly and evenly.

Step 4

Bake the crust for 8 to 10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove and let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 5

While the crust cools, prepare the lime filling. In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, and lime zest until well combined and smooth.

Step 6

Pour the lime filling into the cooled crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set and firm.

Step 8

Before serving, prepare the whipped cream topping. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar together with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.

Step 9

Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the top of the chilled lime pie.

Step 10

Garnish with lime slices or extra lime zest, if desired. Slice and serve cold.
