Perfect Key Lime Pie with Coconut Rum Whipped Cream

Ingredients

  • 11 graham crackers

  • 1/4 cup white sugar

  • 5 tablespoons butter, melted

  • 1 (14 ounce) can plus 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

  • 2/3 cup freshly squeezed lime juice or Key lime juice (see Note)

  • 1/2 teaspoon lime zest

  • 3 large egg yolks

  • 1/3 cup sour cream

  • 1 cup cold heavy cream

  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

  • 2 tablespoons coconut rum

Preparation

Step 1


Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Break graham crackers into the bowl of a food processor and add sugar. Pulse until coarsely ground. Add melted butter and pulse about 4 times until mixture resembles damp sand; transfer to a pie plate and very lightly press into bottom and up sides of the dish.

Step 2


Bake in the preheated oven just until fragrant, 4 to 6 minutes. Let cool.


Step 3


Whisk together sweetened condensed milk and lime juice until smooth. Whisk in egg yolks until well combined. Stir in sour cream and zest until smooth.


Step 4


Pour filling over graham cracker crust; lightly spread in an even layer. Place pie dish on a rimmed baking sheet.


Step 5


Bake  in the preheated oven until just set around the edges and slightly jiggly in the center, 14 to 16 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool to room temperature, about 40 minutes. Chill pie in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours.


Step 6


Place cream, powdered sugar, and rum in a mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until cream holds medium peaks. Serve pie with whipped cream.
