Steps:

• For the graham cracker crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Break up the graham crackers; place in a food processor and process to crumbs. If you don't have a food processor, place the crackers in a large plastic bag; seal and then crush the crackers with a rolling pin. Add the melted butter and sugar and pulse or stir until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and side of a pie pan, forming a neat border around the edge. Bake the crust until set and golden, 8 minutes. Set aside on a wire rack; leave the oven on.
• For the filling: Meanwhile, in an electric mixer with the wire whisk attachment, beat the egg yolks and lime zest at high speed until very fluffy, about 5 minutes. Gradually add the condensed milk and continue to beat until thick, 3 or 4 minutes longer. Lower the mixer speed and slowly add the lime juice, mixing just until combined, no longer. Pour the mixture into the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the filling has just set. Cool on a wire rack, then refrigerate. Freeze for 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
• For the topping: Whip the cream and the confectioners' sugar until nearly stiff. Cut the pie into wedges and serve very cold, topping each wedge with a large dollop of whipped cream.

Steps:

• For the pie: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Whisk together the yolks, zest, condensed milk, lime juice, and vanilla in a bowl until smooth and thickened, about 2 minutes. Cover and set aside at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Combine the graham crackers, coconut, and sugar in a food processor and process into fine crumbs. Add the butter and process until the mixture just comes together. Pat onto the bottom and sides of a 9-inch glass pie plate. Place on a baking sheet and bake until lightly golden brown and firm, about 10 minutes.
• Add the thickened filling to the warm crust, return to the oven, and bake the pie until the center is firm but jiggles slightly when shaken, about 15 minutes. Remove and let cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover the surface and refrigerate until chilled and set, about 3 hours.
• For the whipped cream: Combine the whipping cream, coconut cream, sugar, and vanilla bean seeds in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whip until soft peaks form.
• To serve: Mound the coconut whipped cream on top and sprinkle with toasted coconut.

Steps:

• For the crust: Pulse the flour, pecans, shortening and butter in a food processor until it looks like coarse cornmeal. Then with the processor running, drizzle in the cold vodka 1 tablespoon at a time until it forms into a ball. Take it out and divide in half. Place on a piece of plastic wrap and pat each piece into a disk. Wrap and place in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roll out 1 piece of pie crust on a lightly floured surface slightly larger than your pie tin. (Reserve the other half for another use.) Place into the tin, trim the edges and crimp the edges decoratively. Place a piece of parchment inside the pie shell, fill with pie weights or dried beans and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the pie weights and continue to bake until the pie crust is golden brown, another 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow the crust to cool completely.
• For the filling: Combine the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, sour cream, egg yolks and lime zest in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed for 2 minutes. Scrape the filling into your cooled pie crust.
• Bake until the filling only wiggles a bit in the center when you gently shake the pan back and forth, 15 to 20 minutes. Don't allow the pie to brown.
• Cool the pie on your counter for at least 15 minutes, then place in the freezer for an hour.
• For the whipped cream: Put the cream cheese, powdered sugar, tequila and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment. Whip on high speed until creamy and smooth. Scrape down the mixing bowl. Add the cream and start on low speed to incorporate, and then turn to high speed and whip until stiff peaks form.
• Scrape the whipped cream into a pastry bag fitted with a decorative tip and decorate your chilled pie. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh lime zest over top.

Steps:

• Mix ingredients together and refrigerate until cold. Pour into ice cream maker and mix for 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to another container and place plastic wrap on ice cream and cover container tightly with a lid. Place in freezer for several hours.
