Steps:
- Place graham crackers crushed loosely with hand into bowl of food processor and pulse until crushed. Or place in gallon sized ziplock bag and using rolling pin, smash grahams, then roll until all grahams resemble fine crumbs. Add sugar and melted butter, pulse until combined.
- Press into bottom of 9 or 10" springform pan, evenly and firmly. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- In medium sized bowl, whisk egg yolks until slightly lighter in color. Add condensed milk, lime juice, lemon juice and lime zest. Whisk until smooth
- In separate bowl, pour in reserved egg whites, using whisk or beater attachment beat until frothy. Add sugar to egg whites and whip until stiff peaks form. Egg whites will increase in size, and get stiff and glossy. Fold whipped egg whites into the egg and milk mixture, gently until combined. Spread evenly on cooled prepared crust.
- Bake at 325° for 15-20 minutes or until set and lightly browned. May crack as it cools. Cool on a wire rack, cover and chill for a minimum of 4 hours, 8 hours or more preferred.
- Serving: Beat whipping cream at high speed until slightly thickened, then add powdered sugar and vanilla beating until soft peaks form.
- Remove collar from torte (gently run a nice around the edge to lose from collar) and slice into desired sized slices. Garnish with a dollop or two of whipped cream, a sprinkle of lime zest and a wedge of lime if desired.
- If you'd prefer to pipe the whipped cream, scoop desired amount into sandwich baggie and snip off a corner about ¾ of an inch up, Squeeze onto torte, serve immediately. Refrigerate any leftovers.

KEY LIME TART
Equal parts creamy and tart, this spin on the classic Key lime pie works just as well with traditional limes as it does with the smaller, sweeter variety.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Process graham crackers and 2 tablespoons sugar in a food processor until fine crumbs form; add butter. Process until combined. Transfer mixture to a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom; pat into bottom and up sides. Place pan on a baking sheet, and bake until crust is fragrant and slightly colored, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine condensed milk, lime juice, egg yolks, remaining 1/2 cup sugar, and salt; whisk until smooth. Pour mixture into crust (warm or cool is fine), leaving 1/8 inch at the top; return to oven. Bake until filling is set around edge but still slightly loose in center, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Cool completely at room temperature; then refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours. Serve, garnished with zest, if desired.
KEY LIME TORTE
The baked torte must be rolled while it is still hot so make sure you have everything ready before you begin baking. Also, the baked torte is extremely delicate and breaks apart easy so be gentle with the final steps. Prep time listed includes 4 hours required for the torte to cool and set up.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Line a sheet pan with a sheet of parchment or wax paper. With a brush, cover the paper and sides of pan with the melted butter. Make sure every surface is coated in butter.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat 1½ cups sugar and eggs for at least five minutes until light and fluffy. Add in Key lime juice and zest and stir.
- Pour batter into prepared pan and bake uncovered for 12-15 minutes. The top will get brown and golden and bubble up in places. This is what you want. The browned top gets rolled into the center so imperfections are not seen.
- While pan is in oven, lay a clean dish cloth on your counter with the short end facing you. The dish cloth should be a little larger than the pan you baked the torte in.
- Take the remaining ¾ cup of sugar and sprinkle it over the dish cloth spreading it a little beyond the size of your sheet pan.
- When the torte comes out of the oven, take a wet knife and run it quickly along all four sides (see photo just above) to loosen the torte. Keep wetting the knife as you go.
- Then quickly invert the whole pan over the sugar lined dish cloth, again so the short side of the pan is towards you. Lift the pan off then carefully peel off the parchment paper and discard.
- Again, working quickly, start rolling the torte away from you, using the towel to push the roll forward until it is completely rolled (like you would roll sushi).
- Then seal the rolled torte in the same dish cloth rolling it backwards gently then folding in the sides so that the torte is sealed in the dish cloth.
- Lift the cloth-encased torte onto a platter and refrigerate for three to four hours until set. As it sits in the refrigerator, the center of the tort will get a little creamy.
- After three to four hours (we gave it four), gently unroll out of the towel onto a cutting board and with a sharp knife, make slices on the bias and present one slice per person on dessert dishes.
- Use a spatula to lift each slice, they are very delicate. Garnish with lime zest if you wish.
