Coconut Key Lime Pie
Coconut Key Lime Pie.
I love lime. I absolutely love it. Pair that up with some sweetened condensed milk and I am in heaven.
Traditionally Key lime pie contains egg yolks and is unbaked, though that is rarely done these days, since most fillings with egg are now baked.
Some say that baking the pie completely changes its flavor and texture though and use pasteurized egg yolks to squelch the fears of using raw eggs in an unbaked filling. Key lime pie also sometimes has an egg white meringue on top, though I prefer mine plain with only a dab of whipped cream.
