White Chocolate Pretzel Crust Key Lime Pie
Directions
- 1For the crust, blend pretzels, graham cracker, and white chocolate until a rough texture is achieved.
- 2Add sugar and melted unsalted butter to the crust mixture and pack it into an 8-inch pie pan.
- 3Bake the crust in a 375 degree Fahrenheit oven for 16 minutes.
- 4In a bowl, combine sweetened condensed milk, Greek yogurt, fresh squeezed lime juice, lime zest, and salt.
- 5Start mixing the filling slowly, then whip faster once it begins to combine.
- 6Pour the filling into the pre-baked and cooled crust.
- 7Bake the pie in a 375 degree Fahrenheit oven for 17 minutes until set.
- 8For the whipped cream, start mixing 16 oz of heavy cream (40%) on a slow speed.
- 9Add 3 oz of powdered sugar and 2 teaspoons of vanilla to the heavy cream.
- 10As the cream thickens, gradually increase the mixer speed.
- 11Once the whipped cream starts to form ribbons, add the gelatin all at once.
- 12The whipped cream is ready when it sticks to the bowl after pulling out the whip.
- 13Prepare a pastry bag with a fine tooth tip, folding the top over to easily scrape hands.
- 14Pipe six rosettes of whipped cream on the pie, lifting the bag as you pipe, and then one in the middle.
- 15Slice a nice lime off the center line to avoid the white membrane.
- 16Place the lime wedges cleanly on top of the whipped cream.

Tips
- To make the pie dairy-free, use coconut sweetened condensed milk.
