Kelly's Rich And Creamy Key Lime Pie
My dh say's that mine is the best key lime pie he's ever had! I was so happy!! he used to live in florida, and said it tastes just like the pie you get down there. (i was very proud and relieved to hear that! I was really nervous to make him one!) hope you give my recipe a try. It's a wonderful, easy and no-fail recipe!!
Steps
Preheat oven to 325.
In medium bowl , gently whisk eggs.
Slowly whisk in sweetened condensed milk.
Slowly whisk in key lime juice.
Do not over mix , this will create bubbles.
Just stir gently til all ingredients are mixed together well.
Pop into oven for 40-45 minutes.
My oven takes 44 minutes exactly.
The edge of pie will just start to slightly poof up and the edge of pie will also be very slightly a pale golden brown.
Just very lightly browned.
The pie also will no longer jiggle.
Let cool.
Pie will set up perfectly as it cools.
Refrigerate at least 4-6 hours or overnight.
Pie gets even better the next day ! :).
Serve with whipped cream topping.
Garnish with slices of key limes , kiwi and / or fanned strawberries if desired.
Very rich and creamy !.
You can save the egg whites and make a meringue top if preffered.
But we like the cool , smooth creaminess of sweetened whipped cream much better than meringue.
).
The only other thing i do , is i do add 2 drops green.
