I'm not a fan of lime pie, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The crust was especially good.

I had some trouble getting the crust to set properly. I think I may have overmixed the dough.

This pie was a bit too tart for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think next time I'll use less lime juice.
