Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325°. Zest and juice 11 limes (will yield about 1-1/3 cups juice and 9 tablespoons zest). If desired, reserve the zest and juice of one lime for the topping. In the bowl of a stand mixer with paddle attachment, beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in egg yolks. Beat in milk, lime zest and lime juice. Pour into crusts. Place pies on a baking sheet. Bake until centers are almost set, about 22-25 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. Cover and refrigerate until chilled, 3 hours or overnight.
2. For topping, attach wire whip attachment. In a clean bowl of a stand mixer, beat whipped cream, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, and if desired, reserved lime zest and juice until stiff peaks form; pipe or spread over pies. Garnish with lime slices.
