mmmm...key lime pie

Key lime (disease) pie is one of my favorite pies. Or I guess, cake, for those who think cheesecake is a cake.
 
Now I'm hungry. I have a 16 year old Key Lime tree but have never gotten enough limes from it to make a pie 🙁.

Yank that tree out and replace it with a Maraschino Cherry tree. Much better.

try moving south'er

Someday. There is a spot waiting for me somewhere between Melbourne and Stuart.
 
Cheesecake FTW! And no, I don't mean all the "gourmet" cheesecakes like "Turtle" and stuff like that. Just plain, normal Cheesecake with strawberries on top.
 
Key Lime Pies are excellent, but us folks here in California don't have access to a ton of Key Limes... Mixing 1/2 lime 1/2 lemon juice just ain't the same.

Hell yes.
 
I posted my personal recipe here last year - for your review, Here's the replay:
(I just made it on Tuesday for here at work)

Key Lime Pie

A Dozen Eggs . . .
1 Full Cup of Nellie's & Joe's Authentic Key Lime Juice . . . ( 6 Oz.)
(You can get this in California, in the juice section)
1 Pint of Heavy Whipping Cream.
1 Tablespoon Confectioners Sugar (to be added to Whipping Cream)
1/4 stick of Real Butter
1 Chocolate Graham Cracker Pie Crust (Commercial, pre-made)
1 Shortbread Pie Crust (Commercial, pre-made)
or
1 Oreo Cookie (For a 'Black-Bottom')
(Option #1 = 2 Standard and boring, Graham Cracker Crusts)

Melt 1/4 stick butter (Micro-Nuke for 15 seconds) &
brush this deadly coating onto the inside of the pie crusts.

Pre-heat oven to 350*F (Real Eggs = Bacteriological Biohazard)

Separate the whites from 10 of the eggs, feed the white to the pets.
You only want the yolks. That's where the Cholesterol hides.
What we want here is to be able to stop the heart.

Use the remaining 2 eggs whites and all, why not - cat can't eat ALL the whites.

Beat eggs and sweetened milk together until it is an even mixture, and rather slowly
pour the cup of Key Lime juice into the egg/milk blend, only add a little at a time.
Yes, slow - slower, slower, there - you've got it.
Resist the urge to flip the speed to high and pull the beaters out of the mixture.
It's easy to predict novel ways to make big messes.

Pour 1/2 of the mixture into each of the pre-buttered crusts, &
place in oven. Baking time is 25 minutes at 350*F.

Remove from oven when done, let stand to cool to room temperature.

Beat 1 small container of Heavy Whipping Cream, add 1 Tablespoon sugar,
just a little at a time until it thickens.
Decorate surface of the frozen Key Lime Pies.

You can garnish them with thin slices of lime if you feel so inclined.

Place in freezer until frozen.

Allow to stand down on table for 30 minutes from freezer before serving.

The best Key Lime Pie you'll ever have
