Spray a 9x13 inch baking dish with nonstick spray.
Crush the saltines until crumbs remain. In a large bowl, combine the crushed saltines with the softened butter and sugar. Mix until combined - almost until a dough forms. You can use your hands to bring it together.
Press the mixture into the baking dish. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
After chilling, bake the crust for 18 to 20 minutes. Remove and let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and egg yolks. Make sure they are fully combined. Slowly whisk in the citrus juice, stirring the entire time.
Pour the mixture over the crust. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until it’s completely set.
Let the bars cool completely, then chill in the fridge for 2 hours or even overnight. They have to be cold to be sliced!
Slice the bars into squares. Top each with fresh whipped cream (I prefer unsweetened), a sprinkle of flakey salt and fresh lime zest.
