I have a lot of better key lime pie recipes than this one. Flavor was just OK. I don't understand why the 9 inch pie crust. It barely filled half the plate. I had to pipe whipped cream around the edges to hide this appearance since I was serving this to guests. My suggestion would be if you make this pie use a 8 inch graham crust.
White Chocolate-Key Lime Pie
They say opposites attract, and, in the case of this cream pie, it's true. The rich sweetness of white chocolate and the tart crispness of key lime juice create a match made in flavor heaven.
