Ingredients

For the Pie Crust:

• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the Lime Curd Filling:

• 2 large egg yolks
• 7 ounces sweetened condensed milk
• Zest of 1 lime
• 1/3 cup key lime juice (fresh or bottled)

For the Chocolate Topping:

• 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
• 2 tablespoons neutral oil (or coconut oil for great results)

Directions

To Make the Crust:

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 6″ pie pan; set aside.
2. In a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Stir until evenly combined.
3. Press the mixture into the pie pan, ensuring it is tightly packed and pressed up the sides.
4. Bake on a baking sheet for 9-10 minutes, until golden brown. Let cool.

To Make the Lime Curd Filling:

1. In a stand mixer or using a handheld mixer, beat the egg yolks and condensed milk until light and creamy, about 3 minutes.
2. Add lime zest and key lime juice; beat until fully combined.
3. Pour into the cooled crust and freeze for 24 hours.

For the Chocolate Topping:

1. Melt the chocolate with the oil in a double boiler over medium-high heat, stirring constantly.
2. Remove when almost melted and continue to whisk until smooth. Cool for 5 minutes.
3. To coat the pie, insert a wooden popsicle stick into each piece. Dip into the chocolate, quickly flip, and spoon chocolate over the crust.
4. Freeze until the chocolate sets.
