Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  3. Firmly press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom and up the sides of your tart pan. Bake for about 8 minutes, then cool slightly.
  4. Whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks, key lime juice, and lime zest in a separate bowl until smooth and creamy.
  5. Once your crust has cooled, pour the key lime filling into the center, spreading it evenly.
  6. Bake the tart at 350°F (175°C) for 15-18 minutes, then cool to room temperature.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  8. Slice the kiwis and arrange them on top of the tart, then dollop whipped cream on each slice.
  9. Garnish with fresh mint leaves before serving.
