  • 3/4 cup lemon and lime juice
  • 5 egg yolks

Keto Sweetened Condensed Milk

  • Prepare the condensed milk according to the recipe instructions. Allow it to cool to room temperature.

High Key Cookie Crust

  • Preheat the oven to 375°
  • Add the cookies to a blender or food processor and blend until finely crumbed. Add the melted butter and vanilla and stir or blend until well combined.
  • Press the mixture into a pie plate or springform pan.
  • Bake for 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the crust to cool.

  • Pour the mixture into the cooled, prepared, pie crust.
