Let me start off by saying that I am very close with my girlfriends from high school and one of the things that keeps us close is our love for food. It sometimes is taken to extremes but we tend to bond over our latest creations, iron chef, and various food websites.
Laura called me today at 10am asking if I knew what was in key lime pie (KLP). To be honest, I have never actually tried KLP unless they had it at Burwash...although I am pretty sure they didn't. I did a tastespotting search and found this recipe from www.thekitchensinkrecipes.com. I chose it because it had condensed milk as one of the four ingredients (re: shona snax). This is honestly the simplest thing I have ever baked. On a scale of 1-10, I would give it a 2.3. In taste, I would give it a 6.7. It would have tasted better had I allowed the pie to chill the full eight hours and if I had whip cream.

I suggest you have a slice of this KLP with a stiff G&T.... hint hint Alice.

What happened in those six minutes, Alice?
masturbation.
ReplyDeleteBurwash totally had key lime pie from time to time. It wasn't their strong suit and sort of tasted like laundry detergent of the "lemon fresh" variety. This is not a slam against Burwash though, their pecan pie was as good as any in my humble opinion.
