Key Lime Pie Style: Tink's Lime Pie

This is a sweet and tangy lime cheesecake dedicated to cheesecake lovers, finished in the style of a key lime pie. Recently, I was recommended to try 'Key Lime Pie' at a certain American restaurant and fell in love with its rich and tangy flavor. As a cheesecake lover, I was immediately captivated. However, when I looked up the recipe, I found it didn't contain cheese, so I added cheese to create my own version.

Cooking Instructions

~Preparation~
Soften the cream cheese at room temperature. Wash the limes thoroughly, slice 12 pieces, grate 1 tablespoon of zest, and squeeze the rest for juice. - 2
These are the cookies I used this time.
Crush the cookies in the bag until fine.*Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- 3
Mix the crushed biscuits with melted butter and press into a tart pan, using a spoon to compact it.
- 4
Once the oven is preheated, bake just the crust for 15 minutes. You don't have to bake it, but it adds a crisp texture and makes it easier to remove from the pan.
- 5
In a bowl, beat the egg yolks with a hand mixer until pale and thick. Gradually add half of the sweetened condensed milk, mixing well.
- 6
In another bowl, gradually add the remaining half of the sweetened condensed milk to the softened cream cheese, mixing well. *Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Next, gradually mix the egg yolk mixture into the cream cheese mixture, incorporating the lime zest as well.

Finally, gradually add the lime juice, mixing well. The lime's acidity and the condensed milk will thicken the mixture. Pour into the tart pan.

Bake at 340-350°F for about 20-25 minutes.

I made this often with fresh key limes when we lived in California, where we had a tree full of them. Now they are hard to get so I use regular limes fresh juice is really the best flavor with either lime! It can be made in the traditional 10 inch pie pan or in 4 -3 inch tart pans as I made in the photo for 4 individual pies fenway -

Nothing says summer like the light citrus flavor of key lime pie! As we are quickly blowing through the summer season it occurred to me, I had not made a key lime pie all season. With thirty minutes to spare and not a single key lime in the house... I pulled together this delicious, gorgeous pie. The meringue is optional but gives such an improvement to the look of an otherwise lifeless looking pie. Also, I do not use food coloring (what's in that stuff anyway) but if synthetic and complicated chemical names are your thing you can green your pie up as you see fit. Regardless of pie color and meringue, this pie is a silky citrus filled treat for any occasion. I hope you enjoy. Nena's.cook.nook -

This is pretty requested in our household. If you don't have fresh key limes available to you and can't find the bottled key lime juice, you can use regular limes in a pinch. Just keep in mind that they're a little more tart. Recipe Source : Sallys Baking Addiction Cookbook Christina -

My niece was talking about this pie she was getting and how good it was. So I decided to make one, I used to make at Devon Bar and Grill in Washington DC. It was the first job I had since graduating from culinary school. That was a long time ago. Needless to say I now make the best she's ever had. Warren Sturdivant
