I’ve been craving a slice of key lime pie ever since the winter and I finally tracked down the PERFECT recipe.

Graham Cracker crust + Tartness of 9 limes = A Fantastic Key Lime Pie!

I loved how EASY this pie was to make. 

This recipe will make 2 pies, so make sure you are either REALLY hungry, are going to a party, or want to give one away!

 To begin, go ahead and preheat the oven to 350 F. When that is ready, put both graham cracker crusts in to bake for 8-10 minutes. 

 While that is baking, begin squeezing all the lime juice out of the limes.

Beat 9 egg yolks and add condensed milk. Then mix in the lime juice with it.

Pour the filling in the piecrust and bake!
