Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
5 Tbsp butter, melted
1 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp lime zest
4 egg yolks
1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup fresh squeezed lime juice (preferably from key limes, if you can find them)

Steps:

To make the crust, combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, sugar and lime zest thoroughly in a bowl. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Press crumb mixture into the bottom of a pie pan with a spatula or the back of a spoon to make a somewhat even crust. Bake for 6-8 minutes, remove and let cool completely before filling. Very gently beat egg yolks with a fork or whisk (without beating in any air). Stir in sweetened condensed milk until completely blended, and stir in lime juice until mixture is a smooth consistency. Pour into pie pan with crust and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes. Remove, let cool completely and chill for several hours before serving.
