THE very first cookbook I got and fell in love with was my Bisquick cookbook. How could cooking be so simple? I recently re-discovered this book as I was looking for a quick and easy pie to make – I was not disappointed.

This simple key lime pie is to die for. It’s true. Light, fluffy, and not too LIME-Y. You know what I’m talking about.

Plus, the Bisquick crust is SUPER easy and adds the tinist hint of salt to break up the sweet and tart of the key lime.

All in all – SUPER simple key lime pie. SUPER delicious. You might not want to share. Or maybe you just want to impress everyone you know. I won’t tell.

CONFESSION: I thought I was all legit because I used FRESH limes instead of lime juice. (Bless my heart, right?!) THEN, I cut the limes into cute designs and added a dollup of whipped cream – not typical guys. I thought I was pretty awesome, but really – it’s not hard. It just looks pretty. If I liked high fives, I’d high five myself right now.
