Categories     Pie

Time 55m

Yield 1 pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups gingersnap crumbs, from cookies blitzed in the food processor
21 ounces sweetened condensed milk
6 egg yolks
1 cup lime juice
1 tablespoon lime zest

Steps:

  • Crust: Turn on the oven to 325°F.
  • In a bowl, combine the butter and cookie crumbs until evenly coated. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie plate. Press it harder. Go back again and press the whole bit harder against the sides and bottom of the plate. Slide it into the oven. Bake for 10 minutes. Go zest and squeeze your limes (not a metaphor). Once the crust is done, take it out and cool it on a rack for 10 minutes.
  • Filling: In the bowl of your electric mixer, throw in the milk, yolks, and lime juice. Turn on low until its all mixed together. Add the zest and turn on low until you see the flecks throughout the mixture.
  • Pour the filling into the crust. Bake for 25-30 minutes. You're looking for a solid center with no wiggle.
  • Cool the pie down a bit, between another 20-30 minutes. Then throw it in the refrigerator for 2 hours at least.
  • Serve with unsweetened whipped cream and a slice of lime zest if you're feeling fancy.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pie didn't set properly. It was still tasty, but it was more like a pudding than a pie.

I tried making this pie but it didn't turn out well. I think I might have overcooked the crust.

This pie was a little too tart for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The crust was delicious though.

I'm not a huge fan of lime pie, but this one was really good. The gingersnap crust made all the difference.

This lime pie with a gingersnap crust was a hit at my party! The combination of the tangy lime filling and the sweet, spicy crust was perfect. I'll definitely be making this again.
