Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C).
Line a 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust.
In another bowl, mix the sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, egg yolks, key lime juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the lime filling over the crust in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is just set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before refrigerating for at least 2 hours before slicing.

Notes

For added flavor, sprinkle the bars with lime zest before serving.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
These bars can be frozen for longer storage; simply wrap them tightly and freeze.
