I
got the recipe for the Key Lime Pie from my friend Tenille. She brought
it to a BBQ. This pie is so light and decadent. I make this pie for
every cookout that we need to bring a dessert to. It is the perfect
combination of sweet and tart.
Key Lime Pie
1 pint heavy whipping cream
1 can sweetened condensed milk
2 large limes, zested and juiced (or 3 small limes) + extra for garnish if desired
1/2 large lemon, zested and juiced (or one small lemon)
1 graham cracker pie crust
With
an electric mixer, beat heavy cream until just about fully whipped. Add
sweetened condensed milk, lime and lemon and continue to beat until
light and fluffy. Spoon into crust. Garnish with extra lime wedges and
zest, if desired. This pie can be served immediately or refrigerated
until ready to eat.
I personally think the longer it sits in the fridge, the more the flavors develop and you get a stronger lime flavor.
Enjoy!
