How to Make Carnation Key Lime Pie

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk and 1 cup fresh key lime juice until completely smooth.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons finely grated key lime zest and whisk gently to combine.
  3. Pour the key lime filling into your prepared graham cracker crust (see recipe notes for crust options).
  4. Spread a layer of whipped topping (approximately 8 ounces) evenly over the key lime filling.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely and the flavors to meld.
