Deconstructed Key Lime Pie
- by Jessica Hughes
Another year has come and gone, but key lime pie is still my favorite dessert and what I request every year for my birthday. The tart, creamy filling is what summer dreams are made of. Add vanilla wafers, graham crackers, Calicutts Vanilla Bean Sugar, and tequila to the mix, and well...you have an automatic winner! Perfect for a picnic or just a tasty BBQ dessert. If you hide one for later, I won't tell - promise!
