Key limes are tiny little limes that grow on Key West , Florida. The juice is really nothing like a lime..it is tarter somehow, but with a uniqueness that you can’t explain.
You can’t often find key limes in the produce section but the juice is available. It is usually right by the lemon juice on the shelves. If not, I did check Amazon and they have several types available. Do not substitute lime juice here, it just won’t work.
1 baked crust or,
1 graham cracker crust or, my favorite,
1 gingersnap crumb crust
2 cans eagle brand sweetened condensed milk
2 egg yolks
1 c key lime juice
1 pint heavy cream, whipped and sweetened
1. Whisk the egg yolks and condensed milk together until smooth.
2.Add lime juice and whisk until thickened
3 Pour into desired crust and bake at 350 15 minutes
4.Chill for about 2 hours
5. Top with whipped cream
