10-Minute Lime Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 (14 ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk
    1 pint heavy cream
    3/4 cup lime juice, plus
    1 tablespoon lime zest, from 8 limes
    70 Ritz crackers (about 35 crackers per sleeve)
Preparation
    Combine condensed milk and heavy cream in a large bowl.
    Add lime juice and whisk until thickened, about 1 minute.
    Spread 1 cup filling on bottom of deep-dish pie plate.
    Top with single layer of Ritz crackers.
    Repeat, alternating layers of filling and crackers until pie plate is full. Finish with a layer of filling. For that layer, mix half of the lime zest into the \"batter\".
    Sprinkle with the remaining grated lime zest.
    Refrigerate overnight. Keep refrigerated until serving.
    Note: Original recipe called for 1/2 cup juice but I found it better with more. I also only needed 6 limes to provide the juice I needed. Club crackers can stand-in for Ritz.
