Ingredients
- 2 cups (crushed, about 14 full sheets) Graham crackers
- 0.5 cup (melted) Unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 14 ounces (1 standard can) Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.25 cup (freshly squeezed) Lime juice
- 0.25 cup (freshly squeezed) Lemon juice
- 0.25 cup (freshly squeezed) Orange juice
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 1 teaspoon Orange zest
- 1 cup (optional, for topping) Whipped cream
Directions
Step 1
Prepare a square 8x8-inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, melted butter, and powdered sugar. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.
Step 3
Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust. Place the dish in the freezer to chill while you make the filling.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, lemon juice, orange juice, lime zest, lemon zest, and orange zest until smooth and creamy.
Step 5
Pour the citrus filling over the chilled graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 6
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is firm and set.
Step 7
Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to carefully lift the bars out of the dish. Place on a cutting board and slice into 12 squares.
Step 8
Optionally, top each bar with a dollop of whipped cream before serving for extra creaminess and garnish with citrus zest if desired.
Step 9
Serve chilled and enjoy!
