Ingredients
Method
Prepare the crust
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a mini pie pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool.
Make the filling
- In a clean mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, and key lime zest until smooth.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crusts, filling each mini pie to the top. Bake for an additional 10-12 minutes until set. Remove from oven and let cool.
Prepare the topping
- In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
- Top each mini pie with a generous dollop of whipped cream before serving.
