Prepare the crust: Crush 1½ cups graham crackers or Nilla wafers. Mix with 6 tablespoons melted butter and 2 tablespoons sugar. Press firmly into a 9-inch pie plate. Bake at 350°F for 8–10 minutes, or chill if making no-bake.
Make the filling: In a mixing bowl, whisk together 3 large egg yolks and 1 can of sweetened condensed milk until smooth. Stir in ½ cup Nellie and Joe’s Key Lime Juice.
Bake the pie: Pour filling into the prepared crust. Bake at 325–350°F for about 15 minutes, until set but slightly jiggly in the center.
Chill and set: Let cool at room temperature, then refrigerate at least 3 hours.
Top before serving: Add whipped cream, Cool Whip, or meringue. Garnish with zest or lime slices.
Serve and enjoy: Cut into wedges or portion into bars, mini pies, or single-serving cups.
