Zubereitung von The Best Key Lime Pie
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Crush 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs. In a medium bowl, combine crumbs with ¼ cup granulated sugar and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Press firmly into a 9-inch pie plate.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large egg yolks, 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, ½ cup key lime juice, ¼ cup powdered sugar, and the zest of 2 key limes.
- Pour the key lime mixture into the prepared pie crust.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is just slightly jiggly. Do not overbake!
- Let cool completely on a wire rack. This prevents cracking.
- Chill for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set completely.
- Before serving, whip 1 cup heavy cream with 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until soft peaks form. Top the chilled pie with whipped cream.
