I have posted before regarding Mark's love for key lime pie, here. If we eat out and the restaurant serves it then 9 times out of 10 he'll order it even if he just finished saying, "Augh, I'm so full." So naturally he requested that one of his birthday desserts be key lime pie...in fact he requested 2 pies spread out over the month. LOL Oh my sweet hubby and his sweet tooth.
Did you make key lime pie? I've made it once and it turned out so/so. Wondered if you have a better recipe. Jeff loves key lime pie too!
ReplyDeleteYes, I made the pie. I use a recipe by Pioneer Woman, http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2009/06/key-lime-pie-sorta/. It's not a real key lime technically because it uses regular limes but I kind of prefer that because it's cheaper/easier and I'm not sure we would be able to tell the difference. This is my third time making it and it's SUPER easy and comes out the same every time. I feel like tart things and guys always seem to go together. And why do guys always love orange flavored things? ;P
ReplyDeleteOH! I forgot to mention that one tiny thing I do different from Pioneer Woman's recipe is that I add lime zest to the whipped cream too. :)
ReplyDeleteI still need to make your key lime pie!
