Ingredients

Ingredients

  • 7 ounces spice cookies, such as Biscoff (about 28) or Anna’s (about 45), or graham crackers
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 large egg plus 2 large yolks
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 2/3 cup fresh lime juice, plus strips of zest for serving
  • 3 ounces white chocolate, chopped (2/3 cup)
  • 1 1/4 cups heavy cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Blend cookies in a food processor until finely ground (you should have about 1 1/2 cups). Add sugar and butter; pulse until crumbs are evenly moistened. Press evenly into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch round fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Refrigerate 15 minutes. Bake until fragrant and slightly darker brown, about 10 minutes. Let cool completely.

Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, whisk together egg, yolk, and condensed milk, then whisk in lime juice. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Remove from heat and whisk in chocolate until melted. Transfer to a large bowl; let cool completely.

Whisk cream to soft peaks. Whisk thoroughly into cooled lime mixture until smooth. (It may look slightly curdled at first, but keep whisking!) Spoon into a swoopy layer in crust. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours or, lightly covered, up to 12 hours. Serve, sprinkled with lime zest.

      Cook's Notes

If you can’t find Key limes, swap in juicy, thin-skinned Persian (regular) limes, or regular or Meyer lemons.
