- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup key lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 4 large egg yolks
- Pinch of kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon lime zest
- Whipped Cream for garnish (optional)

- Press the mixture into a parchment-lined 8-inch square baking pan and bake at 350°F for 8-10 minutes.
- Whisk together sweetened condensed milk, key lime juice, vanilla extract, cream cheese, egg yolks, salt, and lime zest until smooth.
