MOM'S KEY LIME PIE
We had this pie in a Miami Beach restaurant back in the 50's and begged for the recipe. It's been a family favorite.

Steps:
- 1. Prepare 9" graham cracker crust, cool. You might like this Graham cracker crust better than the store ones. 12 whole graham crackers, crushed 3 T. brown sugar 6 T. butter 350 degrees for 12"
- 2. Mix 1 can Borden's Eagle Brand milk with ½ cup fresh lime, Key Lime or lemon juice. Stir until it thickens. Add green food coloring carefully.
- 3. Pour into cooled crust and cover with ½ pint of whipped sweetened cream (I like heavy cream as it holds up longer). Refrigerate. Best if cut after it has chilled well.

[email protected]Meh. This key lime pie was just okay. The crust was a bit soggy and the filling was too sweet. I wouldn't make this recipe again.

[email protected]This key lime pie is a bit too tart for my taste. I think I would have preferred a sweeter filling. However, the crust is flaky and the pie is overall well-made.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of key lime pie, but this recipe changed my mind. The crust is flaky and the filling is creamy and tart. The lime flavor is perfectly balanced. I will definitely be making this again.
