Preparation

Step 1

CRUMB CRUST:

Put graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter into a heavy nonstick skillet over medium heat. Stir and toast until lightly browned.

Line 24 miniature muffin cups with fluted foil liners or use 24 (2 oz) unlined ceramic cups. Divide crumb mixture between the cups and tamp down firmly using a spoon or some other tool with a flat end.

Preheat the oven to 350 degree F.

LIME FILLING:

In a glass 2 cup measure, mix the egg yolks, milk, lime juice, and lime zest until well blended. Pour mixture into the crumb-lined cups, filling them to the very top.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until set. Cool thoroughly, then chill.

TOPPING:

Just before serving, whip the cream and add the sugar and vanilla. Spoon the whipped cream over each little pie. Garnish with lime zest.
