Steps:

• Add the 1 1/2 cups of milk to a medium size sauce pan.
• Then add the sugar to the pot and mix.
• In a large measuring cup add the remaining 1/2 cup of milk, the corn starch. Mix really well until the corn starch is dissolved and there are no lumps. Then add in the eggs and the Young Living Lime Vitality EO. Mix again until combined.
• Turn stove on to medium heat and start stirring in your corn starch slurry.
• Continue to mix until mixture comes to a boil.
• Then pour into your mason jars or glass bowls. We garnished our custard with whipped topping and crushed graham cracker crumbs for a truly Key Lime pie feel. Serve warm or keep in the fridge for covered for up to a week.

• Beat 1 cup of the heavy cream into stiff peaks in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, 2 teaspoons of the lime zest and lime juice. Fold the lime juice/sweetened condensed mixture into the whipped cream.
• Spoon the filling into the pie crust and spread out evenly. Place in the freezer until solid and set, 3 to 4 hours.
• Take the remaining 1 1/2 cups of whipping cream and add the confectioners' sugar. Whip until soft peaks. Spoon the whipped cream over the frozen pie. Garnish with the remaining key lime zest and some curled lime slices if desired.

5-INGREDIENT KEY LIME PUDDING POPS RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Beat the instant pudding mix, sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, 3/4 cup water, and lime zest together in a medium bowl. Once smooth, scoop the mixture into 10 popsicle molds, 8 if your molds are large. Place a wooden popsicle stick in each pop. Then sprinkle the crumbled graham cracker on top. Freeze for 3 to 4 hours. To serve: Flip the popsicle molds over the run under warm tap water for about 30 seconds. Then firmly pull the Key Lime Pudding Pops out of the molds. Serve immediately.

FRESH LIME CURD

Steps:

• Place the sugar, butter, lime juice, lime zest in the top of a double boiler; stir over medium-high heat until butter melts. Mix 2 tablespoons hot lime mixture into the eggs and stir to blend.
• Reduce heat to medium until water simmers. Slowly whisk egg mixture into the lime mixture. Cook over the double boiler until lime mixture thickens and coats the back of a wooden spoon, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool slightly and spoon into a clean, glass jar. Cover and refrigerate.

LIME CUSTARD TART

Steps:

• Make crust:
• Pulse together all crust ingredients in a food processor or beat with an electric mixer until a dough forms. Press dough evenly onto bottom and up side of tart pan with floured fingers. Chill shell until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Line shell with foil and fill with 1 inch of pie weights, then bake in middle of oven until edge is pale golden, about 22 minutes. Carefully remove foil and bake shell until edge is golden and bottom is pale golden, about 20 minutes more. Cool completely in pan on a rack.
• Make custard:
• Reduce oven temperature to 300°F.
• Mix together all custard ingredients in a bowl with a whisk (do not beat) until just combined. Set tart shell (in tart pan) in a shallow baking pan and pour three fourths of custard into shell. Carefully put tart in middle of oven and pour remaining custard into shell with a small cup.
• Bake tart until just set in center, about 1 hour. Cool tart completely in tart pan on rack, then chill, covered, until cold, at least 2 hours. Just before serving, remove side of pan.

5-INGREDIENT KEY LIME PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Process graham crackers in a food processor; the finer the crumbs, the more the crust will stick together. Transfer to a bowl and mix with melted butter. Press and mold mixture into a 9-inch pie pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes. Leave the oven on.
• While the crust is cooling, combine condensed milk and egg yolks in a bowl; whisk until fully blended and no yolks are visible in the mixture. Slowly pour in Key lime juice while stirring until combined. Pour into the cooled crust.
• Return to the oven and bake until filling is firm to the touch and only slightly jiggly in the center, 10 to 15 minutes. Cool to room temperature before serving.

KEY LIME CURD

Steps:

• Combine sugar, eggs, lime zest, and juice in a medium nonreactive saucepan, and set over medium-low heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until mixture begins to thicken and holds the mark of the whisk, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat, and whisk in butter, a piece at a time, until well combined. Strain mixture through a sieve into a glass bowl. Lay plastic directly on surface to prevent a skin from forming. Chill 3 hours or overnight to set the curd.
