Description

A refreshing and tropical dessert with a crisp crust, creamy coconut-lime filling, and a bright citrus zing, perfect for warm weather gatherings or a light treat after dinner.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 1 can (400ml) coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 1 tbsp lime zest
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • Whipped cream and toasted coconut flakes for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F). Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl until well combined.
  2. Press mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch tart pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden. Let cool.
  3. In a saucepan, whisk together coconut milk, condensed milk, lime juice, lime zest, egg yolks, and cornstarch over medium heat.
  4. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, about 6-8 minutes. Do not let it boil.
  5. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top. Bake for another 10-12 minutes until just set.
  6. Let the tart cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until chilled and firm.
  7. Top with whipped cream and toasted coconut flakes before serving if desired.

Notes

  • Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer texture.
  • Make ahead and chill overnight for best results.
  • Pairs well with a tropical fruit salad or mint garnish.
