Key Lime Pie


My own personal recipe!

I came across a recipe for Key Lime Pie several years. It took a few attempts to tweak it and make it "just so". I don't think I've ever shared this recipe before. It's fabulous! I have made enough changes to it in the end to call it "mine"!

Ingredients:

Crust

1/4 Teaspoon Cinnamon

1/4 Teaspoon Nutmeg (freshly ground makes this even better)

6 Tablespoons Melted Unsalted Butter

Mix the above ...

  • fun foam, or
  • thin pieces of plastic (like one would use for overhead projectors)

Fun foam ones are nice and sturdy, but you'll need to use straight pins instead of push pins to make them.

Materials:

  • paper
  • printer
  • something to color with ...
