Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 1 ¾ cups Biscoff cookie crumbs about 28 cookies
  • cup melted butter

Filling

  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 egg yolks
  • ¼ cup fresh lime juice
  • zest of 1 lime optional

Topping

  • ¾ cup heavy cream whipped
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Stir together the crumbs and melted butter, and press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9" pie pan.
  • Bake crust at 375° for 9 minutes; remove to a cooling rack. Turn the oven down to 300 degrees.
  • Whisk together sweetened condensed milk and egg yolks in a mixing bowl till smooth.
  • Whisk in lime juice and lime zest.
  • Pour filling into crust and bake at 300° for 15 minutes.
  • Cool pie completely and chill.
  • Spread sweetened whipped cream over the top just before serving.

Notes

  • You can substitute an equal amount of graham cracker crumbs for the biscoff crumbs.
  • The filling only fills the pie shell half full. This is so you have room for the whipped cream on top!
