Ingredients

• 3 cups graham crackers crushed
• 1 cup half-and-half 
• 0.8 cup juice of lime freshly squeezed ( 4 large limes)
• 2 teaspoons lime zest 
• 1 pinch salt 
• 14 ounce condensed milk sweetened canned

Equipment

Directions

1. Put the sweetened condensed milk, half-and-half, lime juice, lime zest, and salt in a bowl and whisk until thoroughly combined.
2. If using conventional molds, divide the mixture among the molds, snap on the lid, and freeze until solid, about 5 hours. If using glasses or other unconventional molds, freeze until the pops are beginning to set (1 1/2 to 2 hours), then insert the sticks and freeze until solid, 4 to 5 hours. If using an instant ice pop maker, follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. Spread the graham cracker pieces on a large plate. Unmold the paletas and press each side into the graham crackers, coating completely.
