- 1 Cup graham cracker crumbs
- 2/3 Cup gingersnap crumbs
- 6 Tbs unsalted butter, softened
- 2 Tbsp light brown sugar
- 3/4 tsp grated key lime or lime peel
Filling:
- 6 egg yolks
- 1 2/4 Cups sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 Cup Key lime juice
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tsp grated key lime or lime peel
- 1 tsp grated lemon peel
- 1/4 tsp lemon oil
- 1/8 tsp salt
For the crust, combine graham cracker crumbs, gingersnap crumbs (I use my food processor to to get the crumbs fine), butter, brown sugar and lime peel in a bowl, Mix until crumbs cling together to form a coarse mixture. Press crumb mixture over the bottom and up the side of a 9-inch pie plate. Chill in the refrigerator.
For the filling, preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Whisk egg yolks in a bowl until blended. Stir in condensed milk, lime juice, lemon juice, lime and lemon peel, lemon oil and salt. Pour into the prepared pie shell. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until set. Chill, covered, until serving time. Garnish with whipped cream and decorative lime slices just before serving. Serves 8.
