Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Mix graham crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until the texture resembles wet sand.

  4. Step 4

    Fold in lime zest, lime juice, vanilla, and salt until fully combined.

  5. Step 5

    Spread filling over the base and smooth the top with an offset spatula or back of a spoon.

    Refrigerate at least 15 minutes until firm, then slice into 9 squares with a sharp knife.
