Hi Joanna, I'm sorry to hear it didn't work out for you. Assuming you didn't make any ingredient substitutions, the most likely possibility is that the cream wasn't cooked for long enough. After coming to a rolling boil, you need to reduce the heat to keep it from boiling over, but you still want it at a medium boil. Freezing it is a good idea for salvaging it. Since there is no air incorporated into the cream it won't turn out soft like a no-churn ice cream, but you should still be able to slice it after leaving it at room temp for a bit.

Not sure what I did wrong. Is there any way to firm it up now? Maybe freeze it? I don’t want to ruin it

Hi Kathleen, as long as it's refrigerated it will not spoil, however it will not be at its best. The peak time would be after about a day. By the second day, the crust absorbs too much liquid from the filling and starts to get very wet (though some people like this).

Hi Sheri, now I'm nervous😆 But I do feel pretty confident that this is the best Key Lime Pie I've tasted. I don't really have any revisions on this one right now, but please let me know how it goes!

My expectations are about as high as they can be. My mom always talked about this lime pie she had once and she tried key lime pie anytime it was served anywhere we went. Sadly she never found the one she wanted so much. Anyway now that I’m older I’ve developed a taste for lemon and lime pies and I have found myself trying to figure out what she was looking for all that time. I like the idea of no eggs and how clever of you to add the zest to get that extra flavor, but then take it out so the texture isn’t compromised.. I’m probably in way too deep at this point. 😆 If you have any upgrades or improvements that aren’t shown in the recipe or even just tips for me I’d appreciate all the information I can get before I dive into the world of actually making pies.
