Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Preheat oven

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

2
Prepare graham cracker crust

Crush graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a ziplock bag and crushing with a rolling pin.

3
Mix crust ingredients

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1/3 cup of granulated sugar until well combined.

4
Press crust into pan

Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.

5
Prepare key lime filling

Zest and juice the key limes. In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks, key lime zest, and key lime juice until smooth.

6
Pour filling and bake

Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the filling is set and barely jiggles when the pan is gently shaken.

7
Cool the pie

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack, about 2 hours. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

8
Prepare whipped cream

In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.

9
Serve

Slice the chilled pie and serve with a dollop of whipped cream on top.
