Last week I posted a picture of a key lime pie that I made to take to Rudd’s house in North Carolina for the weekend and so many of you asked for the recipe! This is the key lime pie recipe that I’ve been making every summer for as long as I can remember. And guess what? It’s SO EASY! With a homemade crust and filling, it only has 6 ingredients and is ready from start to finish in 30 minutes. Take this pie to a summer cookout or family get together and you’ll be the star of the show!
