January 14, 2012: 333 days to go

Tonight, my fiance and I baked a pie together from scratch. We've been stressed out lately (why I haven't posted like I should) and it was really nice to get a chance to sit down and talk about everything. It tasted wonderful, and I had to share the recipe with you all.

Eat your heart out, Martha.

Ingredients

• 1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
• 2 14oz. cans sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 3/4 cup key lime juice (approx. 30 key limes)
• 1 tablespoon grated lime zest

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a medium bowl, combine condensed milk, sour cream, lime juice, and lime rind. Mix well and pour into graham cracker crust.
3. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until tiny pinhole bubbles burst on the surface of the pie. DO NOT BROWN IT! Chill the pie thoroughly before serving. Garnish with lime slices and whipped cream if desired.
