Ingredients
- 11 Whole graham crackers, divided
- 0.25 Cups (cup) white sugar
- 5 Tablespoons (tbsp) butter, melted
- 1 14 Ounces (oz) plus 0.5 Cups sweetened condensed milk
- 0.67 Cups (cup) freshly squeezed lime juice
- 0.5 Teaspoons (tsp) lime zest, zested
- 3 Large egg yolks
- 0.33 Cups (cup) sour cream
- 1 Cups (cup) cold heavy cream
- 0.25 Cups (cup) powdered sugar
- 2 Tablespoons (tbsp) coconut rum
Steps
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Divide graham crackers into the bowl of a food processor and add sugar. Pulse until coarsely ground. Add melted butter and pulse about 4 times until the mixture resembles damp sand. Transfer to a pie plate and lightly press into the bottom and up the sides of the dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven just until fragrant, about 4 to 6 minutes. Let cool.
- Whisk together sweetened condensed milk and lime juice until smooth. Whisk in egg yolks until well combined. Stir in sour cream and lime zest until smooth.
- Pour the filling over the graham cracker crust and lightly spread in an even layer. Place the pie dish on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven until just set around the edges and slightly jiggly in the center, about 14 to 16 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool to room temperature, about 40 minutes. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours.
- Place cream, powdered sugar, and rum in a mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until the cream holds medium peaks. Serve the pie with whipped cream.
