calories 720

Ingredients

¼ cup Florida Key lime juice

3 Florida key limes, zested

2 ½ cups Florida sugar

6 cups whole milk

2 cups heavy cream

16 egg yolks

⅓ cup sweetened condensed milk

1 cup graham crackers, crushed into small pieces

1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise

Preparation

Combine milk, heavy cream, and vanilla bean in a large pot and bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Meanwhile, in a separate mixing bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until completely combined. Temper egg mixture with a third of the hot milk, then slowly pour back into large pot with milk and cream, whisking constantly. Cook over medium heat until custard reaches 180-185 degrees (stir constantly) and is slightly thickened. Strain through mesh strainer into a clean bowl and chill completely (over ice bath or in refrigerator). Stir lime juice and zest into custard mixture. Pour into ice cream machine and follow manufacturer’s instructions. Approximately 5-10 minutes before ice cream is set, add graham crackers. When set, swirl in sweetened condensed milk. Place in freezer-safe container and allow to set for at least 2 hours before serving.

Fresh tip: If you don’t have vanilla bean, substitute 3 tablespoons pure vanilla extract; add to mixture at the end of the cooking process before straining.
