Key Lime Pie
By not-recognized
Published on 03 May 2022
This version of the classic American dessert, key lime pie, combines zingy limes and a crumbly biscuit base. Ready in just one hour, it’s a creamy, sharp, sweet and delicious no-cook treat, but be warned, you may struggle to stick to one slice. Served with a dollop of creme fraiche and a sprinkle of lime zest. And, if life gives you lemons (instead of limes) this recipe works for them too – just swap the 5 limes for 4 lemons.
