17 Southern Living Key Lime Pie Ice Cream Recipe Experience Flavor Like Never Before!

Ingredients:

Filling:

• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup key lime juice
• 1 tsp lime zest
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 4 egg yolks

Graham Cracker Crust:

• 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Instructions:

1. Make the filling:

1. In a saucepan, heat the cream, milk, sugar, key lime juice, lime zest, and salt over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth.
3. Slowly pour the hot cream mixture into the bowl with the egg yolks, whisking constantly to prevent the eggs from scrambling.
4. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
5. Remove from heat and strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Let it cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

2. Make the graham cracker crust:

1. In a bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
2. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x9 inch baking dish. Bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes, until lightly golden. Let it cool completely.

3. Assemble the ice cream:

1. Once the filling is chilled, pour it into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions.
2. Once the ice cream is ready, spread half of it on top of the prepared graham cracker crust.
3. Sprinkle some extra graham cracker crumbs on top, then add the remaining ice cream on top.
4. Use a knife to swirl the layers together, creating a marbled effect.
5. Cover and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.

4. Serve and enjoy!

When ready to serve, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping into bowls or cones. Top with whipped cream, more graham cracker crumbs, and a slice of lime for the ultimate key lime pie experience in ice cream form.
