How to Make Key Lime Margarita Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Crush 1 ½ cups pretzels into fine crumbs. In a medium bowl, combine the pretzel crumbs, ¼ cup granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter. Mix until evenly moistened.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  4. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, ½ cup Key lime juice (about 4-5 limes), and 2 tablespoons margarita mix powder until smooth and well combined.
  6. Gently fold in 8 ounces whipped topping (1 container).
  7. Pour the filling into the cooled crust.
  8. Freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until firm.
  9. Let the pie stand at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before serving to allow for easier slicing.
