You all know after we made the lemon bar recipe - we had to try it with limes!
I can't tell you how refreshing, light, and delicious both of our citrus dessert recipes are. The lime version might be my favorite thing I've made dessert wise these past few months.. and I've been playing around with a lot of recipes.
You can enjoy the key lime pie solid or on the more custardy side -- either way its amazing!

Wow! thanks for sharing mine is in the fridge now! So happy with it so far. Thank you for coming up with this!
I made this and it turned out great! I used about a cup of lime juice, and I taste-tested the filling as you recommended and added about 1/4 cup more of date paste to my taste. I used a springform pan with a piece of parchment paper and it worked great. This pie tasted so good, I felt let down when it was gone! Thank you for another great recipe! :D
I made this today with regular sweet potatoes. It was yummy. I can’t wait to try with Japanese sweet potatoes. Super easy to make and tasted really wonderful.
Hello! I was just wondering if there's a substitute for the Japanese sweet potato- we don't have them in Australia.
