Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs (from nine standard size crackers , or 1 of the 3 package in the box)
2 tbsp sugar
5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
4 large egg yolks
6 tbsp fresh lime juice
3/4 cup very cold heavy cream
1 tbsp sugar
zest from 1/2 lime

Directions:

Make the crust: Put a rack in the middle of hte oven and preheat to 350. Butter a 9″ pie plate.
Stir together graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter in a bowl with a fork until well-combined. Press crumb mixture evenly onto bottom and 1/2 way up sides of pie plate. Bake for 10 minutes, take out of the oven, and leave the oven on.
Make the filling and bake the pie: Whisk together condensed milk and yolks in a bowl until well-combined. Add juice and whisk well (filling will thicken slightly). Pour filling into crust and bake for 15 minutes. Cool completely and put into the fridge for at least 4 hours.
Just before serving, whip the cream and sugar together until it just holds stiff peaks. Spread pie with cream or top each serving with a dallop and a bit of lime zest.
Note: If you want to make this ahead of time (1 or 2 days), don’t put the cream on it. Do that right before you serve it.
