Bright, tangy, and impossibly creamy, this key lime pie is the dessert to reach for when you want something cool and refreshing. Sweetened condensed milk and egg yolks thicken around a good pour of lime juice, all cradled in a buttery graham crumb crust. It needs a long chill to set, which makes it a perfect make-ahead treat for a warm evening. Tart and sweet in every forkful.
