Key Lime Pie Recipe
This is the recipe I used when I first started making Key Lime Pie, which I will link here, but I have since adapted it slightly.
Ingredients:
- 400g of Digestive biscuits (or any biscuits of your choice).
- 85g of melted butter (but you can use more depending on the consistency you want – if I’m honest I’m always guess this part).
- 397g condensed milk.
- 300ml of double cream.
- The zest and juice of five limes.
- You will also need loose-based tin – preferable with a spring release.
Method:
Place the biscuits into a zip lock bag and crush the biscuits into crumbs using a rolling pin.
Melt the butter, add this to the biscuit crumbs and mix until combined. Once combined, pour this into the base of the spring-release tin and press the mixture down with the back of a spoon until it’s flat and compact. Place this in the fridge to chill.
Zest and juice the five limes. Please mind your fingers when using both the knife and the grater – I’m accident prone so just thought I would share from previous experiences 😂.
Combine the condensed milk and double cream and whisk until it is thicker in consistency. Once fully combined, add in the lime juice and zest and stir until fully mixed. Pour the cream mixture on top of the biscuit base and flatten it with a spatular, then place this back in the fridge to chill for a few hours.
And there you have it! A lovely dessert, refreshing for those hot summer months! 🍨😋
Until next time!
See you soon!
