This is a collection of my favorite recipes. This blog is mainly for me. I wanted a place to keep all my recipes where I could pull up the recipe where ever I may be from my phone or computer. These are recipes I have TRIED and LOVED. I have a LONG waiting list of recipes I want to try that I hope to add soon. I have collected these recipes over the years and unfortuantely do not remember where I got all of them. If I know the source I have given credit where credit is due. If you stumble across my blog and find YOUR recipe, please let me know and I will give you the credit!

Key Lime Tarts

Our Best Bites

10 mini graham cracker crusts* (available near the regular graham cracker crusts in the baking aisle)
5 egg yolks
1 14-oz. can sweetened condensed milk
Around 1/2 c. lime juice. Fresh key lime juice is best, then regular lime juice, then bottled key lime juice. If you're going to use bottled regular lime juice, don't. Honestly, I'm too lazy to juice those tiny little key limes, so I just juice regular limes and call it a day.
2 drops green food coloring (optional)

Preheat oven to 350. In a medium bowl, combine egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, and lime juice. Distribute evenly between pie crusts (a cookie scoop works great for this). Place tart pans on a large baking sheet and bake 10-11 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool; chill in refrigerator until ready to serve. Serve each tart with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream.

*Can be made with 1 9" graham cracker crust; bake 15 minutes.

Sweetened Whipped Cream

1 c. whipping cream
1/3 c. powdered sugar

Combine whipping cream and powdered sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
