Graham Cracker Crust

1
|
Preheat your oven to 350°F. Lightly grease your tart pan with butter or neutral cooking spray.
2
|
In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the graham cracker sheets, in batches if necessary, until you have semi-fine crumbs. You should end up with about 1 1/2 cups of crumbs. Add the coconut flakes, sugar, cinnamon, melted butter, and salt and pulse until the coconut and graham crackers are finely ground and the mixture comes together.
3
|
Pour the coconut graham mixture into the tart pan and press the mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of the pan. Bake for about 7-8 minutes or until lightly golden. Let cool to room temperature while you prepare the filling.

Coconut Key Lime Filling

1
|
In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolks until creamy. Add the sweetened condensed milk, coconut cream, key lime juice, and key lime zest until smooth and fully incorporated.
2
|
Pour the coconut key lime filling into the cooled pie crust. Bake 10-14 minutes just until the filling is mostly set, but still a little jiggly in the center. Remove the tart from the oven and let it cool for about 30 minutes on a wire rack at room temperature.
3
|
Press a piece of plastic wrap to the top of the filling to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate the pie until chilled, about 3-4 hours.

Whipped Cream Topping

1
|
With a stand mixer or hand mixer, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form.
2
|
Immediately before serving, spread the whipped cream over the top of the pie and garnish with toasted coconut, lime wedges, etc. Slice and serve immediately. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Toast Coconut to Perfection 🥥
    When toasting coconut flakes, use a dry skillet over medium-low heat and stir constantly to prevent burning, watching for a golden brown color that intensifies flavor and adds crunch.
  • Key Lime Juice Precision 🍋
    Always use fresh key lime juice and zest for the most vibrant flavor - bottled juice lacks the bright, complex notes that make this tart truly exceptional.
  • Graham Cracker Crust Secret 🍪
    Press the graham cracker crust mixture firmly and evenly into the pan, using the bottom of a measuring cup to create a compact, uniform base that will hold together perfectly.
  • Cream Whipping Technique 🥄
    Chill your mixing bowl and whisk beforehand, and whip heavy cream just until soft peaks form to ensure a light, stable whipped cream topping that won't deflate.
  • Filling Temperature Trick 🌡️
    Allow your filling ingredients to come to room temperature before mixing to ensure a smooth, lump-free consistency and even cooking in the tart.
