Prep: 40 min. Bake: 15 min. + chilling

Yield: 8 Servings

40 15 55

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup slivered almonds, toasted, divided
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon honey
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened, divided
1/2 cup key lime juice
1 tablespoon grated key lime peel
Dash salt
1 egg yolk
1-3/4 cups miniature marshmallows
4-1/2 teaspoons butter
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Directions

Place the flour, brown sugar and 1/2 cup almonds in a food processor. Cover and process until blended. Add melted butter and honey; cover and process until crumbly. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until crust is lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
In a large bowl, beat the milk, 5 ounces cream cheese, lime juice, peel and salt until blended. Add egg yolk; beat on low speed just until combined. Pour into crust. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack.
In a large saucepan, combine marshmallows and butter. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until melted. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl. Add cream and remaining cream cheese; beat until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until chilled.
Beat marshmallow mixture until light and fluffy. Spread over pie; sprinkle with remaining almonds. Yield: 8 servings.

This was a definite hit at my family's thanksgiving dinner. (we live in an area that is hot most of the year so this is normal fare for us) Even picky family memebers thought it was the best Key lime pie they ever had.

this is great Key Lime Pie, DO NOT use regular limes or lime juice, sorry, but it just won't be the same. You must use Key Limes, or Nellie's Key Lime Juice from Whole Foods. It's worth it!
