Instructions
1
Make the lime filling
Preheat oven to 325°F. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, mix egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, lime zest, and lime juice. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens or comes to a boil, about 10 minutes. Pour into a greased pie dish. Bake for 25 minutes. Let cool.
2
Make the crust
Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter. Stir until evenly combined and set aside. Pour the cooled lime filling into a large sealable bag and cut off one corner.
3
Assemble
First press 1 to 2 tablespoons of the crumb mixture into the bottom of a push-pop container. Squeeze a ring of lime filling on top of the graham cracker crumb layer. Repeat layering until full. Top with whipped cream and garnish with lime slices. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
