Key Lime Pie
Ok, first I don’t have key limes. And second, I made it in muffin tins so really they’re more like tarts. But Non- Key Lime Small Pies just doesn’t really sound right. And there is no reason why you can’t make this recipe with key limes… and put in it a pie tin. It’s versatile like that.
