I got this recipe from Everyday Baking . My husband made it the other day, and it turned out really good.
Ingredients:
9 -10 graham crackers
1/2 cup sugar, plus
2 tablespoons sugar
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup fresh lime juice (4-6 limes)
4 large egg yolks
1 pinch salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Process graham crackers and 2 tablespoons sugar in a food processor until fine crumbs form, add butter. Process until combined. Transfer mixture to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom, pat into bottom and up sides. Place pan on a baking sheet, and bake until crust is fragrant and slightly colored, about 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine condensed milk, lime juice, egg yolks, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, and salt; whisk until smooth. Pour mixture into crust (warm or cool is fine0, leaving 1/8 inch at the top; return to oven. Bake until filling is set around edge but still slightly loose in center, 20 to 25 minutes.
3. Cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate untilchilled, at least 2 hours. To store longer, cover and refrigerate, up to 2 days. Serve, garnished with zest, if desired.
