I saw a recipe in the September 2003 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine for "individual key lime 'pies' " on page 210 which made think of this thread. I haven't tried it yet but with a little low carb doctering it might be pretty good. The filling is supposed to be spead on indivual graham crackers with crushed graham crackers on one side to look like the pan edge of a slice. Instead it could go into crushed nut lined custard cups. It really sounds more like a key lime cheese cake but hey, how bad could that be!
Filling:
2 limes or 4 key limes
1/3 cup heavy cream
4 ounces cream cheese
1/2+ cup Splenda (original calls for 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar so adjust Splenda to taste.
Grate 1 1/2 tsp of peel and squeeze 2 TBS of juice - set aside.
Beat cream till stiff peaks form. In seperate bowl beat cream cheese with splenda, peel and juice. stir in the whipped cream.
Spoon into custard cups and eat.
Have a great day,
Rosemary
