KEY INGREDIENTS
INGREDIENTS
- ●1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- ●1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- ●3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ●3/4 cup NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Premier White Morsels
- ●1 can (14 ounces) NESTLÉ® CARNATION® Sweetened Condensed Milk

MAKE IT
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350° F. Combine graham cracker crumbs, butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl; stir until well mixed. Press into a 9-inch glass pie plate to form crust. Bake for 10 minutes; transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.**
Step 2
Place morsels in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at MEDIUM (50%) power for 30-second intervals until melted, stirring after each interval. Stir until smooth. Combine morsels with sweetened condensed milk, mascarpone, lime juice and lime zest; whisk or beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Pour into cooled crust; smooth top. Refrigerate at least 4 hours. (Optionally, place in freezer for 15 minutes just before serving). Slice pie into 8 wedges. Serve with dollops of whipped topping or whipped cream. Garnish with toasted coconut and lime slices, if desired.
