KEY LIME PIE ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Mix the zest, juice, sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Let sit in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. Heat the milk until it is just boiling. Remove from heat. Whisk a quarter cup of the hot milk into the egg yolks (to temper the yolks). Whisk in a little more. Scrape the yolk-milk mixture back into the rest of the milk and whisk together. Place over medium heat and whisk constantly until the custard has thickened (should coat the back of a spoon). Place the custard on ice or in the refrigerator until it is chilled completely. Mix the sugar-lime mixture, the custard, and the cream together in a large bowl. Churn the ice cream in your ice cream maker according to the ice cream maker instructions. Stir the graham crackers into the soft ice cream. Freeze.

CRUNCHY KEY LIME PIE BITES ON ICE CREAM

Steps:

• To make the Key lime pie bites: Get your oven to 350°F. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter, sugar, and kosher salt and mix it with your hands until it's all like wet sand.
• Line a loaf pan with parchment paper so the paper hangs over the sides by an inch or two. Put the graham sand in there and give it a firm press onto the bottom so you have an even packed layer that's a smidge more than an inch. Bake, rotating the pan once, until the edges start to darken a shade but the center isn't quite done, 12 to 15 minutes.
• While you're waiting, whisk together the condensed milk, Key lime juice, and egg yolks so they're well mixed. When the crust is done, pour on the lime mixture, give the pan a couple of taps on the counter so the lime stuff settles evenly, then bake again until the lime mixture is just barely set in the center, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Let this bad boy come to room temperature, then pop it in the fridge until it's cold and it's good to go. It keeps, covered, in the fridge for a week or the freezer for two.
• To serve: Run a knife along the edges of the pan, then use the parchment paper to lift out and cut the bars into roughly 1-inch crunchy Key lime pie babies. Scoop the ice cream into bowls (or just leave in the carton), top with the Key lime pie bites, and garnish with a pinch of flaky salt. Eat.
