Key Lime Pie

Adapted from Foodnetwork.com

Terrible lighting for the picture, I know. This is a simple and delicious recipe; definitely a crowd pleaser. This pie was gone in minutes. I only regret that it isn't topped off with lime zest. Can you believe the store was completely out of limes?

Ingredients:

2 cans sweetened condensed milk
1 cup key lime or regular lime juice (preferably key lime)
2 eggs
1 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 tablespoon lime zest
1 graham cracker crust

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Combine the condensed milk, lime juice, and eggs. Whisk until well blended and place the filling in cooled pie shell. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes and allow to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. Once chilled, combine the sour cream and powdered sugar and spread over the top of the pie using a spatula. Sprinkle the lime zest as a garnish on top of the sour cream and serve chilled.
