How to make it
Graham cracker crust
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in small bowl. Press into pie pan (8-9.5 inch). Bake for 7 minutes. Allow to cool at least 30 minutes.
Filling
- Reduce oven to 350 degrees. Mix together condensed milk, sour cream, lime juice, and lime zest. Pour into cooled pie crust and bake for 10 minutes. Allow pie to cool before refrigerating. Allow to chill for at least 3-4 hours.
Whipped Cream
- Beat heavy cream and sugar until stiff peaks form. Beat in vanilla. Use piping bag to decorate pie. Sprinkle with additional lime zest and enjoy!
For mini tarts/cupcakes
- Using a regular 12-muffin pan, line with muffin papers. Add 1/4 cup of graham cracker mixture and rather than 6 TBS butter, use 8 TBs butter and use 1/2 cup sugar (instead of 1/3 cup). Use wooden tamper to press to the bottom of the cupcake (wiggle in circular motion so the tamper can release easily) See Photo. Bake the graham cracker crust for 3-4 minutes. Allow to cool and spoon in filling in each cupcake. Bake for 4-5 minutes and allow to cool. Remove from cupcake pan before refrigerating (the butter will harden and may make removal difficult otherwise.). The key lime cupcakes can be frozen in the mini Glad storage containers!
