Steps:
- Watch our quick recipe video to see how easy it is to make our Key Lime Pie!
- Mix the crushed biscuits with the melted baking spread in a bowl and press the crumbs into the base and up the sides of the tin. Chill for ten minutes.
- Using a balloon whisk, mix the condensed milk and cream until combined, then add the lime juice and the majority of the zest (it will thicken!). Pour onto your biscuit base and chill for at least 1-2 hours. This Key Lime Pie recipe can also be made with lemons - replace the five limes with four lemons for a lovely fresh twist. Or, try gingernut biscuits in the base they go beautifully with the tangy lime.
- Remove the pie from the tin and place on a serving plate. As the perfect finishing touch to your key lime recipe, decorate with the spoonfuls of crème fraiche and the rest of lime zest and serve.
Tips:
- Use fresh Key limes for the best flavor. If Key limes are unavailable, use regular limes, but add a little more zest to compensate for the milder flavor.
- Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before mixing it with the other ingredients. This will help ensure a smooth filling.
- Do not overmix the filling. Overmixing can cause the filling to curdle.
- Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the filling to set properly.
- Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream for a delicious dessert.
Conclusion:
This Carnation Key Lime Pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The creamy filling is perfectly balanced by the tartness of the Key limes, and the graham cracker crust adds a perfect crunch. This pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
