Frozen Lime Berry Delight
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made graham cracker crust (9-inch)
- 1/2 cup lime juice (freshly squeezed preferred)
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 2 cups whipped cream
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- 1 cup fresh berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, or sliced strawberries)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup of lime juice with 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk. Use a whisk to blend completely until the mixture is smooth and thick.
2. Combine with Whipped Cream:
- Gently fold in 2 cups of whipped cream into the lime mixture using a spatula. Mix until fully incorporated but being careful to maintain the airy texture.
3. Add Lime Zest:
- Stir in 1 tablespoon of lime zest, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture for a burst of citrus flavor in every bite.
4. Assemble the Pie:
- Pour the creamy lime filling into the graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula to create an even layer.
5. Freeze the Dessert:
- Place the assembled pie in a shallow pan or on a baking sheet to stabilize it. Transfer to the freezer and allow it to set for a minimum of 4 hours, or until the filling is firm to the touch.
6. Decorate Before Serving:
- Once frozen, remove the pie from the freezer. Decorate the top with 1 cup of fresh berries, distributing them evenly for a vibrant and appealing presentation.
7. Serving:
- Slice the pie using a sharp knife, warming it slightly by running it under hot water and wiping dry between cuts for clean slices. Serve immediately to enjoy a refreshing, cool dessert.
