Favorite things...

I love key lime pie and this is one of the easiest recipes I have ever used. It is just delish!

Key Lime Pie

one 14oz can of sweetened condensed milk
3 egg yolks
1/2 cup of Nellie and Joe's Key West Lime juice(found in better supermarkets)

combine milk, egg yolks, and lime juice and mix well until smooth.
pour filling into a 9" graham cracker pie shell
bake at 350* for 15 minutes
Cool, refrigerate until chilled and top with whipped cream.

So simple and sooooo good.

  2. This is one of Stacy's favorites too! we almost had it for Thanksgiving - but I found a new Pecan Caramel pie recipe that sounded too good to ignore. Southern Living, of course! Turned out very yummy - but very rich! Are you going to publish your velvet chicken soup recipe?

    I am going to stick the background square for that applique block in the mail to you tomorrow so you have lots of time to work on it. I will need it back by January 13th. You are too sweet for doing this for me! Love you and miss you!

  3. This is the same recipe I use for my lemon pie except I use lemon juice, of course. Also, I only bake for 8 minutes. Love this pie!!

  4. Side bar regarding the return... if you want the same ones in a different size (I'm concerned they will be out of stock), call them and see if they will hold them or pre-ship them... or just knock yourself out and get something completely different. And the pie still looks good. Wish I was there having some with you :-)

  6. If you can't get this particular lime juice, can I just use the juice from limes? I have never made a key lime pie before, looks delicious!
