When we were tasked to bring a pie to my cousin's Labor Day weekend BBQ, Chris decided he was going to make a key lime pie. He checked out some recipes and created his own. I give it 2 thumbs up!
Crust:
1 1/2 C. graham cracker crumbs
1 C. sugar
6 tbsp. butter, melted
1/4 C. walnuts, measured then ground
Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar and ground nuts. Pour melted butter in and then use your hands to form coarse crumbs. Press mixture into a 9 inch pie pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes until golden brown...keep an eye on it for the last 5 minutes or so so it doesn't get too dark.
Filling:
1 14oz. can sweetened condensed milk
1 C. plus 1 tbsp. key lime juice
8oz. vanilla ice cream, softened
2 eggs
Grated lime zest
Mix filling ingredients together and pour into cooled pie crust. Bake at 325 degrees for 15 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
