Makes 8 Slices
Prep: 20 minutes
Cook: 15-20 minutes
100g Butter
225g Digestive Biscuits
5 Limes
3 Large Egg Yolks
400g Condensed Milk
To start preheat the oven to 180 degrees (350F/Gas Mark 4). Melt the butter in a saucepan over a low heat then begin to add the digestive biscuit crumbs and stir until well combined. Remove the pan from the heat and tip the mixture into a flan dish and use a spoon to press it evenly and firmly all over the base and into the sides of the dish. Place into the oven and bake for 5 minutes.
Whilst the base is in the oven grate the zest of 3 of the limes into a bowl. In a separate bowl juice all 5 limes and set aside.
Beat the egg yolks into the bowl which contains the lime zest until the egg has thickened. Slowly pour in the condensed milk and whisk for 5 minutes. Add the lime juice and whisk again until the mixture is incorporated. Pour the mixture into the tin and bake for 15-20 minutes until set.

Remove the pie from the oven and leave to cool, I like to decorate my Key Lime Pie with lime pieces and grated dark chocolate however this is up to you.
Enjoy!
