This is not an authentic recipe for key lime pie but I think it is even better. Creamy, smooth, not overly sweet, quick & easy....just perfect. Makes two pies if using 9-inch store-bought graham cracker crusts. Ingredients:
2 (9 inch) graham cracker pie crust or 1 deep dish pie shell |
16 ounces cream cheese, softened |
3/4 cup key lime juice (i use bottled key lime juice) |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |
1 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest |
1 -2 cup sweetened whipped cream or 1 -2 cup creme fraiche |
Directions:
1. With an electric mixer, blend cream cheese, lime juice, and condensed milk until smooth. Add zest and mix just until combined. Pour filling into prepared crust. Chill pie at least 6 hours and up to 1 day. Serve topped with sweetened whipped cream or crème fraîche. |
