Tips:
- Use fresh limes. Fresh limes will give your pie the best flavor. If you can't find fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice. However, fresh limes will give you a much better result.
- Don't overcook the pie filling. The pie filling should be thick and creamy, but it should not be overcooked. Overcooked pie filling will be tough and rubbery.
- Chill the pie before serving. The pie should be chilled for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.
- Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. Whipped cream or ice cream is the perfect complement to a cool lime pie. It will add a touch of sweetness and creaminess to the pie.
Conclusion:
A cool lime pie is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It is light and refreshing, with a delicious lime flavor. The pie is also very easy to make, and it can be made ahead of time. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy dessert, give this cool lime pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
