KeyLime Pie

Nico's favorite dessert! So I thought I'd be nice and make it for him!! and HE ATE THE WHOLE THING...hahah mad skills~~

1 cup all purpose flour
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 cup slivered almonds, toasted, divided
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 tablespoon honey
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened, divided
1/2 cup key lime juice
1 tablespoon grated key lime peel
Dash salt

1 egg yolk
1-3/4 cups miniature marshmallows
4-1/2 teaspoons butter
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream


Directions
Place the flour, brown sugar and 1/2 cup almonds in a food processor. Cover and process until blended. Add melted butter and honey; cover and process until crumbly. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-in. pie plate. Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until crust is lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.

In a large bowl, beat the milk, 5 ounces cream cheese, lime juice, peel and salt until blended. Add egg yolk; beat on low speed just until combined. Pour into crust. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack.

In a large saucepan, combine marshmallows and butter. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until melted. Remove from the heat and transfer to a bowl. Add cream and remaining cream cheese; beat until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until chilled.
