KEY LIME PIE WITH TOASTED MARSHMALLOW MERINGUE RECIPE BY TASTY



Key Lime Pie With Toasted Marshmallow Meringue Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: graham crackers, butter, brown sugar, eggs, lime zest, condensed milk, vanilla ice cream, key lime juice, light corn syrup, sugar

Provided by Jordan Kenna

Categories     Desserts

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 graham crackers
7 tablespoons butter, melted
¼ cup brown sugar
6 eggs, separated
lime zest, to taste
14 oz condensed milk, 1 can
½ pt vanilla ice cream
½ cup key lime juice
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 cup sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
  • Place graham crackers in plastic bag and crush them into a fine crumb using a rolling pin. Alternatively, a food processor can be used to crush the crackers.
  • Pour the graham cracker crumbs into a medium bowl with the melted butter and brown sugar. Mix until the crumbs take on the character of a coarse, wet sand.
  • Pour the crumbs into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie dish. Press the crumb firmly into the dish, making sure to coat the bottom and sides of the dish evenly. Once the crust has been formed, place the pie dish into the refrigerator to firm up.
  • Separate 6 eggs. Working with the yolks (reserve the whites for later), add the zest of 1 lime and whisk, either by hand or with an electric mixer, for 2 minutes. Add the can of condensed milk and continue to whisk until mixture is smooth and has a pale yellow color.
  • Add in the ice cream and key lime juice. Continue to whisk for an additional 3-5 minutes. The filling should be smooth and airy when finished.
  • Pour the filling mixture into the refrigerated graham cracker crust and bake at 350˚F (180˚C) for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges of the crust begin to brown and the filling no longer jiggles when disturbed.
  • While the pie is baking, combine the reserved egg whites with corn syrup and about ¼ cup (50 grams) of the sugar and begin to whisk vigorously to form the meringue. Continue to add the sugar in small increments until all of it is incorporated. Continue to whisk until mixture thickens and stiff peaks form, about 7-10 minutes.
  • Top the baked pie with the meringue. Using a rubber spatula, spread the meringue evenly over the top of the pie, making sure to cover all the visible areas of filling. Once covered, use the tip of the spatula to shape the meringue forming small peaks a valleys in the topping.
  • Bake at 350˚ (180˚C) for an additional 7-10 minutes to toast the meringue topping. Allow to cool completely for at least 1 hour before cutting.
  • Enjoy!

Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (made from about 7 1/2 ounces graham crackers, finely ground in processor)
3 tablespoons sugar
6 to 7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Filling:
3 pounds medium red-skinned sweet potatoes (yams)
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon salt
Marshmallow Meringue:
1 7-ounce jar Kraft Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme
3 large egg whites
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar

Steps:

  • For crust:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix graham cracker crumbs and sugar in medium bowl. Add 6 tablespoons melted butter and stir until crumbs feel moist when pressed together with fingertips, adding 1 tablespoon melted butter if crumb mixture is dry. Press crumb mixture onto bottom and up sides of 9-inch-diameter glass pie dish, building up sides 1/4 inch above rim of dish. Bake crust until set and beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Cool on rack. DO AHEAD: Pie crust can be made 2 days ahead. Cover pie crust and let stand at room temperature.
  • For filling:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Pierce sweet potatoes all over with fork; place potatoes on rimmed baking sheet. Bake until potatoes are very tender when pierced with fork, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Cool slightly. Cut potatoes open and scoop out pulp. Transfer pulp to processor and puree until smooth. Set aside 2 cups sweet potato puree for filling; cool completely (reserve any remaining puree for another use). DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Combine 2 cups sweet potato puree, sweetened condensed milk, and all remaining ingredients in large bowl; whisk until well blended and smooth. Pour filling into crust. Bake pie until puffed around edges and set in center, about 50 minutes. Transfer pie to rack and cool. Refrigerate pie at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • For marshmallow meringue:
  • Position rack in top third of oven and preheat to 400°F. Using rubber spatula, scrape marshmallow creme into large bowl. Using electric mixer, beat egg whites and salt in another large bowl until foamy. Add sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, and beat until stiff and glossy peaks form. Add 1/2 cup beaten egg whites to marshmallow creme and stir with rubber spatula or spoon just until incorporated to lighten (marshmallow creme is very sticky and will be difficult to blend at first, but blending will become easier as remaining whites are folded in). Fold in remaining whites in 2 additions just until incorporated. Spread meringue over top of cold pie, mounding slightly in center and swirling with knife to create peaks.
  • Bake pie just until peaks and ridges of marshmallow meringue are lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Let stand at room temperature until meringue is cool. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover with cake dome; chill. Let pie stand at room temperature 30 minutes.

Tips for Making Perfect Marshmallow Meringue

  • Use a clean bowl and whisk. Any grease or residue can prevent the meringue from whipping up properly.
  • Make sure the egg whites are at room temperature. This will help them whip up more easily.
  • Gradually add the sugar while whipping the egg whites. This will help prevent the meringue from becoming grainy.
  • Continue whipping the meringue until it is stiff and glossy. This will ensure that it will hold its shape when baked.
  • If you are using a piping bag to shape the meringue, be sure to use a large tip. This will help create larger, more airy meringues.
  • Bake the meringues at a low temperature for a long period of time. This will help them dry out and become crispy.

Conclusion

Marshmallow meringue is a delicious and versatile treat that can be used in a variety of desserts. Whether you are making a simple meringue pie or a more elaborate creation, these tips will help you create perfect meringues every time.
