Key Lime Pie
I cannot think of a tropical area and not think of Key Lime Pie. I always thought Key Lime Pie would be hard to make, until my grandmother taught me to make the following recipe years ago. I am including a recipe to make the graham cracker crust from scratch, but feel free to buy a 9-inch prepared crust if you would like.
Ingredients for Crust
18 Graham cracker squares crushed into crumbs. (I use the food processor).
¼ Pound of butter (Not margarine)
½ Cup sugar
¼ Teaspoon cinnamon
Ingredients for Key Lime Filling
3 Cups sweetened condensed milk
½ Cup of sour cream
¾ Cup of Key Lime Juice
1 Tablespoon of grated lime zest
