I was in charge of bringing dessert to my mother-in-law's birthday and I needed something quick, easy and hey, lets face it, cheap. Key lime pie was a winner. It literally took 10 minutes to assemble and after that it's just a matter of baking, chilling, and putting it in the fridge to set up. I whipped up some cream and powdered sugar to top it off with just before serving. The canned whipped cream would work great too.
1. Pour 2 small cans of sweetened condensed milk into a large bowl.
2. Add 4 egg yolks (I made it in the morning and made myself and egg white omelette)
3. Add a pinch of salt
4. Add the juice of 1 bag of key limes plus one regular lime. (2 if the key limes aren't juicy)
5. Zest 2 of the key limes and add it to the bowl.
6. Whisk it all together, pour in a ready made graham cracker crust and bake at 350 until the middle sets up. Took about 30 minutes until it wasnt' super jiggly.
7. Refrigerate at least 6 hours and you're good to go!
