This rich and creamy Key Lime Pie has a filling made from sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, and lime juice, with lime zest blended in for an extra boost of flavor. The recipe I used was adapted from one by Ann Richardson at Allrecipes, and hers was given a 5 star rating at that site.
Prepare the crust, or if you prefer you can use a purchased 9-inch graham cracker crust.
I used a 16 ounce bag of key limes for my lime juice, and I was still a wee bit short of 3/4 cup. I had to squeeze one regular lime to add with my key lime juice to make the amount I needed for the recipe.
Pour the filling into the crust and bake for 5 – 8 minutes. Chill thoroughly and garnish as desired.

Pretty pie! If it has sweetened condensed milk in it, I know it will be good!

I don't think, I have ever had a lime pie. I used to not like lime at all and I can't figure out why. Now, I know it is good so this pie must be as good as it looks.

You're making me hungry for some good key lime pie. How does your pie compare with the one we ordered from Anita's and Kutchie's Key Lime Pie Factory. Theirs was best one we've tried thus far. Yours looks to be very appetizing also. We intend to try yours too. And we like the looks of it because your pie and Anita's pies aren't green like a lot of places have.
thanks, Tammie
