Sublimely limey!
Have wanted to make this for a long time, finally having the ingredients, gave it a go. Using coconut biscuits instead of the usual digestive made a complimentary combination. Made enough for six large portions and was received very well, even my son (an extremely fussy eating ex-chef) enjoyed it! Shall use lemons next time with a ginger base and see if it's another winning combination.

Delicious and very easy dessert
I decided to try this recipe - I have always made the baked version before, for fear of the mixture not setting, but this uncooked version worked perfectly. I used ginger biscuits and coconut for the base, and I whipped the double cream into soft peaks before adding the other filling ingredients. The mixture stiffened straightaway, once the lime juice was added, and I put the whole thing in the freezer for half an hour before moving it to the fridge. It is thirty degrees outside, but two hours later, the dessert was perfectly set and ready to serve, decorated with chocolate hearts and lime zest shavings. A showstopper dessert, and no oven - perfect!

Not thickening?
Hi. Just made this for a dinner party tonight, but it's not thickening when I whisk? Just consistency of a smoothie! Scared to put in bar as worried it will just be a drink on top of biscuit. Does it thicken once in fridge?

Family place orders
Hi everyone,
I make this family favourite regularly, obviously with Carnation evaporated milk. My family, and quite a fair few friends, place orders for this gorgeous key lime pie at least twice per month. I always make sure Carnation evaporated milk is part of my shopping list as much as bread and eggs etc.
I think, as far as desserts go, this is the best, so why not go all out. It's such an easy recipe to follow, but I know it by heart now. I prepare the biscuit base, the morning before, and the filling the night before, leave it in the fridge overnight, and all the next day, as tempting as it is, then devour it after our main meal.
Always a family treat, or crowd pleaser for parties, belter

Best key lime pie I’ve ever tasted
I was concerned about the sweetness of condensed milk but the end result was a perfect combination of tangy and just sweet enough. When whipping the double cream and condensed milk we did wonder if it would thicken but adding the lime juice and zest created some kind of magical chemical reaction and it thickened before our eyes. The limes we used were quite small but four gave a perfect flavour. Cannot recommend highly enough - and it’s so easy to make too. (I used a glass dish rather than loose bottom tin, no need to grease or line, it comes out clean when cut).
