The key to every dessert is the easiness of making it. Many pies can take a long time to make and can be time consuming.  This delicious, light, fluffy, and easy key lime pie is going to be the easiest pie you will ever make! My dad loves key lime pie, so I decided to make him one! This happened to be the easiest pie I have ever made. It took me all of 5-10 minutes to have everything done. No baking involved just put it in the refrigerator for an hour for the pie to set. After dinner, I gave my dad a slice of my and he really loved it! It has all the flavor of your typical key lime pie but better it is so light and fluffy. All you need for this key lime pie is 3 ingredients and a graham cracker pie crust! With only three ingredients, how could you not make this easy key lime pie recipe?!

Super Easy Key Lime Pie Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 can of sweetened condensed milk 
  • ½ cup of key lime juice 
  • 8 ounces of Cool Whip or 1 cup of freshly whipped cream 
  • 1 graham cracker pie crust

Note About Key Lime Juice:

This recipe is all about easy so I bought pre-squeezed lime juice that comes in the lime bottle to keep it super easy. It works just fine. If you have access to fresh key limes, squeezing them would take this recipe up a notch so feel free to do that and while you are at it, add a 1/2 tsp of lime zest if you have fresh limes. But if not, don’t sweat it!

How to Make Easy No Bake Key Lime Pie:

  1. In a bowl or stand mixer, add the sweetened condensed milk and the lime juice. Mix until the mixture is thick. I used a stand mixer and let it mix for about 5 minutes to make the mixture a light and fluffy.
  2. When the mixture is thick, add the 8 ounce of Cool Whip (what my grandmother would’ve done) or whipped cream (what my mom would do) into the mix. Fold together until everything is well mixed.
  3. Pour the mixture into the pie crust and place it into you refrigerator for 1 hour. It will harden a bit as it cools and sets.
  4. After an hour, cut slices and serve.

Enjoy a slice of pie with a dollop of Cool Whip on top or garnish with a lime slice on top!
