Best Key Lime Pie

This is my recipe for the best key lime pie.

It's made the traditional way with just one additional ingredient.

3-oz of cream cheese to make it extra smooth and creamy.

Key lime juice, sweetened condensed milk, and egg yolks.

 Combine condensed milk, cream cheese and egg yolks.

 Beat for 3-4 minutes until creamy.

Mix in the key lime juice.

You'll need a graham cracker pie crust (HERE)

 Pour filling into crust.

 Bake for about 10 minutes to set up.

Let cool, then refrigerate.

 Serve with whipped cream.

 Tart and sweet.

It's a classic. Perfect with coffee!
