I got this recipe from a cookbook that I got in Johnson City, TN. It is a book compiled by Pine Grove United Methodist Church with recipes from the locals. This cake is delicious! I hope you enjoy it. Prep time is approximate.

I had some trouble getting the crust to set, but the cake still tasted great.

I'm not a huge fan of key lime pie, but this cake was surprisingly delicious. The filling was tangy but not too sour, and the cake itself was moist and flavorful.

This is the best key lime cake I've ever had! The crust is perfectly graham crackery, the filling is smooth and tangy, and the whipped cream is light and fluffy.
