Comment préparer Lime Pie

**Make the Lime Curd:** In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 4 large eggs, and 1 cup fresh lime juice. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes). Remove from heat.
Stir in 2 tablespoons lime zest and let cool completely. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 1 week.
**Prepare the Crust:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) melted unsalted butter, and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.
Press the crumb mixture into a 9-inch pie plate. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
**Make the Pie Filling:** In a large bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), the cooled lime curd, 1 tablespoon lime zest, and 2 tablespoons lime juice until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream and 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold 1/4 of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Then, gently fold in the remaining whipped cream until just combined.
Pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set completely.
**Garnish & Serve:** Garnish with additional whipped cream and lime slices before serving.
