This is a very popular Atlantic Beach Pie recipe, a huge hit in American restaurants, especially along the North Carolina coast. Its uniqueness lies in the harmonious combination of a salty, dense crust made with saltine crackers, a creamy, tart, citrus-infused filling, and a mountain of whipped cream. It's simply mind-blowing. And if you're feeling experimental, you can sprinkle the cream with sea salt.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- Preheat oven to 180 C.
- Finely crush the crackers (not into dust) in a medium bowl. Add the sugar and butter and knead until the cracker mixture comes together like dough. Now line the bottom of an 8-inch (20 cm) baking pan with this mixture. Cool for 15 minutes, then bake for about 15-20 minutes until nicely golden. Remove from the oven and cool.
- In a medium bowl, beat the egg yolks into condensed milk, pour in the lemon juice. It's important to mix these ingredients very well. Pour immediately into the pie pan and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until the filling is set. Cool.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream and powdered sugar with a whisk or hand mixer. Spread over the entire surface of the pie.
Atlantic Beach Pie is served completely cold, as it slices easier this way. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
