1 9-in pie shell
5 Egg yolks
14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
8 tb Lime juice, or more to taste
TOPPING
1 c Whipping cream
3 tb Confectioners’ sugar
1 Lime, Grated rind only
PREHEAT OVEN TO 350F. Put the yolks in a large bowl and beat them with a
whisk, just breaking them and mixing them well. Slowly stir in the
condensed milk. Mixing well, stir in the lime juice. The mixture should be
tart–if it isn’t pleasantly tangy, stir in more lime juice. Pour the
filling into the pie shell. Bake for about 12-to-15 minutes. Remove and
cool. Whip the cream, slowly adding the confectioners’ sugar. Spread over
the pie and sprinkle the lime rind over. Serve at room temperature, but
refrigerate if not serving within 3 hours of baking.
