Lime Margarita Pie Cups Recipes

NO-BAKE FROZEN MARGARITA PIE

Steps:

• Mix together the pretzel crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch glass (or Pyrex) pie plate. Set aside.
• Use an electric mixer to whip heavy cream to soft peaks. In a large separate bowl, stir together the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, lime zest, tequila, and triple sec until well combined. Gently fold the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture until just incorporated.
• Pour the filling into the prepared crust and sprinkle with additional lime zest, if desired. Freeze for 6 hours up to overnight, then cover with plastic wrap and re-freeze until ready to serve.
• Allow pie to sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before slicing with a sharp knife and serving.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray.
• Put the graham crackers, brown sugar and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Process until the graham crackers have broken down into fine crumbs. Add the coconut oil and process until combined; the mixture will resemble very wet sand. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan, using the back of a flat-bottomed glass or measuring cup to press the crust firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan.
• Combine the egg yolks and condensed milk in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the lime juice and tequila and whisk until smooth.
• Spread the filling evenly over the crust. Bake until the filling is just set and only slightly jiggles in the center, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through baking. Let cool slightly on a wire rack for 20 minutes, and then chill in the refrigerator until completely cooled, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
• Right before serving, whisk the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a large bowl on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, about 2 minutes. Add the orange liqueur and whisk until the cream reaches medium stiff peaks, 1 to 2 minutes, being careful not to overmix.
• Remove from the refrigerator and sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Spread the whipped cream on top, then cut into 8 to 10 pieces and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• To make the pretzel crust, combine the crushed pretzels, graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter. Once the mixture is combined, spread the mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie tin. Press the mixture in the tin onto the bottom and the sides to form a firm even crust. Bake for 5 minutes until the edges are lightly browned. Let shell cool until needed.
• For the filling, use a large mixing bowl, and combine the sweetened condensed milk, limeade, tequila, orange liqueur, and food coloring if desired, until all ingredients are well mixed. In a medium size bowl, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the lime and tequila mixture. Spoon the filling into the pie shell, cover and freeze for 4 hours or until firm.
• To serve, let pie stand for 10 minutes after coming out of freezer. Slice pie and garnish with lime slices.

MARGARITA PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Process the graham crackers and sugar in a food processor to a fine crumb. Add the melted butter and tequila, and pulse until moist. Press the crumbs into a 9-inch pie plate, and bake until firm, 12 to 15 minutes. Let the crust cool completely on a wire rack.
• For the filling: Whisk together the condensed milk, limeade, tequila, lime juice, liqueur and salt in a large bowl until smooth and combined. Beat the cream with an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment on medium-high speed in another large bowl until stiff peaks form. Reduce the speed to low, and drizzle in the condensed milk mixture. Return the mixer to medium-high, and beat until the mixture is completely incorporated and fluffy, about 30 seconds, stopping to scrape down the side of the bowl if necessary. Transfer the filling to the cooled crust, cover loosely with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours or overnight.
• Transfer the pie to the refrigerator 30 minutes before serving. Garnish with lime wedges dipped in salt, and serve.
