How to Make Key Lime Bars With Animal Cracker Crust
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- Crush animal crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed animal crackers with melted butter until evenly moistened.
- Press the cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- While the crust is baking, whisk together the key lime juice, sweetened condensed milk, and eggs in a medium bowl until smooth.
- Pour the key lime mixture over the baked crust.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is just set. The edges will be set, but the center might still jiggle slightly.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to fully set.
- Once chilled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and serve.
