- 15 Ritz crackers $0.55
- 9 graham crackers $0.74, sheets, 1 package
- 4 Tbsp butter $0.49, unsalted
- 3 Tbsp brown sugar $0.09
Filling Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch $0.10

Instructions
- In a food processor, combine Ritz crackers, graham crackers, unsalted butter, and brown sugar.
- Pulse until well-combined, but not too fine!
- Press crust evenly into parchment-lined 9x13” baking dish.
- Bake crust for 15 minutes at 350°F. Remove from oven and let cool.
- Gather cornstarch, cold water, lime juices, lime zest, Greek yogurt, and sweetened condensed milk. Whisk cornstarch and cold water together.****
- Whisk all key lime filling ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
- Pour key lime filling on top of pre-baked crust.
- Bake for another 15 minutes at 350°F. Remove from oven, allowing it to cool completely.
- Pop it in the fridge for 30 minutes to an hour. Then, slice bars into squares and (optional) serve with a dollop of homemade whipped cream or Cool Whip! Enjoy.
Notes
- *About one and a half “fresh stacks” of Ritz Crackers
- **One sheet of graham crackers equals 4 crackers per sheet.
- ***Nellie and Joe’s key lime juice is my favorite option for this recipe, but regular lime juice works just fine and is more budget-friendly. Regular lime juice is a little sweeter than key lime juice, but I found including the extra 1-2 Tbsp of juice from the fresh lime helped give it a little more tartness!
- ****Whisking the corn starch and cold water together before whisking all of the ingredients together is preferable to avoid lumps.
