Zubereitung von Margarita Key Lime Pie With Gingersnap Crust

**Prepare the Crust:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
**Combine Dry Ingredients:** In a medium bowl, finely crush 1 ½ cups gingersnap cookies. Add ¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut.
**Add Butter:** Add 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter to the cookie and coconut mixture. Stir until well combined.
**Press into Pie Plate:** Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
**Bake the Crust:** Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
**Make the Filling:** In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk together 4 large eggs, ½ cup key lime juice, ¼ cup orange liqueur, 2 tablespoons tequila, and 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk.
**Cook the Filling:** Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and reaches 170°F (77°C) on a candy thermometer (approximately 15-20 minutes). Do not boil.
**Add Lime Zest:** Remove from heat and stir in the zest of 2 key limes.
**Cool the Filling:** Pour the filling through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Let cool completely.
**Whip the Cream:** In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
**Fold in Cream:** Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled lime filling.
**Pour into Crust:** Pour the filling into the cooled gingersnap crust.
**Freeze:** Freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
**Rest Before Serving:** Let the pie stand at room temperature for 20 minutes before slicing and serving.
**Garnish (Optional):** Garnish with whipped cream, lime wedges, or candied ginger.
