Another wonderful recipe which I shall take down and use in the very near future. My hubby is a "dessert first" kind of guy and would love this!
I have wanted to try to make this for a long time. Perhaps this will light my fire. I can't find lime here, but do you think lemon would be good. When I go to America this May I should try to bring some back. My list is getting longer.
About the copyright, I am perplexed. You saw my friends blog, it was not so great, just my thoughts. Anyway the copyright was easy peasy lemon squeezy to do. Just click on mine and you can decide how you want to do it. Otherwise you may just see your wonderful recipes in someone else's cookbook! I have included my email so you can just email me directly.

I love key lime pie.Your recipe looks like something I can handle. I'm not the best at baking. I'm going to have to try it. Thanks.

Key lime pie is so light and filling that I could eat it at every meal.
