4 Ingredient No Bake Key Lime Pie
This cool and refreshing lime pie doesn't require any baking. It is sweet, creamy, and tangy. It is only four ingredients and easy to make.
Ingredients
- 8 oz (227 g) full fat cream cheese, brought to room temperature
- 14 oz (397 g) full fat sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup (118 ml) lime juice + 1/2 tbsp lime zest
- 1 9-inch premade graham cracker crust
Instructions
- Add cream cheese to a large mixing bowl. Beat on high speed until it is light and fluffy. Scrape down the sides of your mixing bowl a few times as needed to make sure all the cream cheese gets beaten.
- Add in the condensed milk. Beat until you have a smooth batter. Add in the lime juice and zest. Mix on low speed until they are evenly incorporated.
- Pour pie filling into the graham cracker pie crust. Use a spatula to smooth and even out the surface. Place pie into fridge or freezer to set. If placing in the fridge, it will need several hours to set. If placing in the freezer, it will only need about one hour to freeze. If you want to decorate the pie, wait for the filling to set and then decorate. If you freeze the pie, keep it frozen until ready to serve. If you refrigerate the pie, keep it in the fridge until ready to serve.
Notes
- If you freeze the pie, the filling will be more firm and easier to cut clean smooth slices. The filling will taste more like key lime cheesecake ice cream. If you refrigerate the filling, the filling will be very creamy and have a custard-like consistency. You will still be able to cut it into slices.
- 14 oz of condensed milk refers to weight, not volume. Condensed milk is usually sold in 14 oz cans so you will need one (14 oz) can for this recipe.
- 8 oz cream cheese refers to weight. One block of cream cheese is usually 8 oz so you will need one (8 oz) block.
- I decorated the top of the pie with fresh whipped cream and some lime zest.
