Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter.

  2. 2

    Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.

  3. 3

    In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, key lime juice, and lime zest until smooth and slightly thickened.

  4. 4

    Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake for another 15 minutes, or until the filling is set but slightly jiggly in the center.

  5. 5

    Remove from oven and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight to fully set.

  6. 6

    Top with whipped cream and extra lime zest before slicing and serving.
