food processor
Electric mixer
10 inch pie plate
Crust:
- 1 ¾ cups graham cracker crumbs about 2 sleeves
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted, 1 stick
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon salt (optional)
Filling:
- 24 ounces cream cheese 3 blocks, softened to room temperature
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk 1 can
- ¾ cup lime juice
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lime zest
- 8 ounces whipped topping thawed, 1 tub
Spray a 10-inch pie plate with cooking spray and set aside. Add the graham crackers into the food processor or high speed blender and pulse until you get fine crumbs.
Transfer the crumbs into a small mixing bowl and then combine with the sugar and salt.
Add the melted butter and mix until well combined.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pie pan. Place the crust into the freezer for at least 10 minutes to set while making the filling.
In a large mixing bowl using a hand mixer on medium high speed, beat the cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, and zest and beat until well combined.
With a rubber spatula, fold in the thawed whipped topping.
Remove the pie crust from the freezer and then pour the filling into the prepared crust.
Spread evenly with an icing spatula. Go back and forth, lightly pressing down to remove any air pockets.
Place the pie into the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This will allow the filling to set and hold its shape when cutting. It will also give the flavors time to blend together.
When ready to serve, pipe with whipped cream and garnish with fresh lime slices and fresh grated lime zest. Slice and Serve.
