  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • Zest of 2 limes, plus more for topping
  • 1/2 cup (115g) key lime juice
  • 1 3/4 cups (430g) heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tbsp powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix together the ground graham crackers, brown sugar, and salt. Stir in the melted butter until well combined.
  2. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, covering the bottom and sides. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Add lime zest and juice, mixing until combined.
