The reason why I am posting a desert tody is that I was at a party and I brought a Key Lime Pie.
Every one asked for the recipe so I said I would put it on my blog today. So here it is.
9 inch graham cracker crust now you can buy it already made but it tastes better if you make it youself:
1 package of graham crackers
1/3 c of sugar
6tbls sugar
Crush crackers in food processor, add sugar whirl it then add the melted butter and whirl a little bit more.
Pour crust into a 9 inch pie plate and press down and up the side.
Bake for 7 minutes at 350.
Cool for about 10 minutes before filling..
Key Lime Filling:
You can use key limes if you can find them. I use Nellie and Joe's
Key West Lime Juice.
14 oz sweetened condensed milk
!/2 cup of the lime juice(and may be a bit more nice and tangy)
3 egg yolks plus one whole egg
Separate eggs put into bowl and eat for about 2minutes
pour in milk and beat for another minute or so
Add juice and beat another 2 minutes.
Pour into pie shell.
Bake 15 minute at 350
Cool on baking rack for at least 10 minutes
Put into fridge
Before serving you must put a topping on it!!
Topping
8 oz of heavy cream or whipping cream (cold)
2 tbls of confectionary sugar
1 tea of vannilia
Pour all ingredients into bowl and beat on high till thick.
DO NOT OVER BEAT or you will have sweet butter(which would not
be bad if you were having toast)
By the way the recipe is on the bottle of key lime juice but I just tweak it a little.
ENJOY !!
