MOM'S KEY LIME PIE
We had this pie in a Miami Beach restaurant back in the 50's and begged for the recipe. It's been a family favorite.

Steps:
- 1. Prepare 9" graham cracker crust, cool. You might like this Graham cracker crust better than the store ones. 12 whole graham crackers, crushed 3 T. brown sugar 6 T. butter 350 degrees for 12"
- 2. Mix 1 can Borden's Eagle Brand milk with ½ cup fresh lime, Key Lime or lemon juice. Stir until it thickens. Add green food coloring carefully.
- 3. Pour into cooled crust and cover with ½ pint of whipped sweetened cream (I like heavy cream as it holds up longer). Refrigerate. Best if cut after it has chilled well.

From my Mom's splattered old recipe card. It does not get any more authentic than this. A native of FL and a 54 year resident..she knows her pies. (NO green food coloring please :))
