Made in a sweet vanilla crust, it's the perfect end to a light, fresh meal. Key lime pie ingredients are simple: sweetened condensed milk, lots of lime zest and juice (preferably from key limes), and just enough egg to give it a good set. Pour the filling into a pre-baked graham cracker crust, bake briefly until the pie is set, and let it chill. Top the pie with whipped cream and serve. Stir with a fork first, and then your hands until the mixture is well combined.
