Just a quarter teaspoon makes the crust so delicious but keeps the eater guessing what it is that makes these key lime pie bars so addicting. The cinnamon flavor isn’t noticeable if you’re worried about that. The Cheesecake Factory uses nuts in some of their cheesecake crust to make the flavor so unique, along with a pinch of cinnamon. I know you’re giving me the look, but let me say that cinnamon and ground pecans are going to take these bars to the next level. That’s because I add a few not-so-traditional ingredients for key lime pies into the crust. Key Lime Pie Bars! Have you had them? For me, it all starts with the perfect crust and the creamy filling.Īnd my crust, I guarantee, is like no other you’d had before.
It makes me feel like the humid wind blowing through my hair came straight from the Florida Keys. These key lime pie bars are always the first desserts I crave when spring finally hits. Something about springtime just makes me CRAVE lime-y desserts that are citrusy and tangy.
