This is really yummy smooth and nice. We didn't find it too sweet (I was afraid we might). I like the pretzel crust. I was impatient about waiting for the whipped topping to thaw so I have some teeny bumps of it in my pie (which is okay). We had it as is last night for dessert (with some candied limes and mint). Tonight I'm going to freeze it for a while to see how it is frozen - fabulous I'm sure. Thanks for this recipe I'll make it again. LATER: Even better frozen - doesn't really "freeze " but sets up nicer. The crust gets a little too hard though. Change up the crust a bit if you want to serve it frozen...excellent!
I served this lime pie to a friend who initially said she did not like lime pie but was willing to try a piece. Now she says that this is her favorite pie recipe.
I made this pie for several parties this summer and it was always the first to be eaten. Everyone raved about it and wanted the recipe. It is so deceptively easy to make and the pretzel crust is really unique. I used just 2 drops of food coloring for a more natural look and served it garnished with fresh sugar coated lime slices-- delicious!
I made this pie for a key lime pie lover and this was one of the best they've had!..very good and I will definately make again.
Nice and creamy. The pretzel crust is great. Very rich though go tiny on the pieces.
Delicious and so easy.I used a graham cracker crust because I'm not a pretzel fan.I'll be making this again. The "2 extra servings" graham cracker crust is the perfect size.
Excellent recipe that was a snap to make. I made it the night before a dinner party and put the sugared limes on before I brought it out. Huge hit with the pretzel crust. I thought this might be a little "campy" but the gourmands at my party disagreed!
very easy & quick to make. I read the other review & used a graham cracker crust substituted frozen raspberry lemonade & folded in fresh raspberries. Next time I'll still use raspberry lemonade but omit folding in the fresh fruit & serve it on the side. No need to let the pie sit at room temperature before serving - serve it right from the freezer!
I served this at a shower & everyone thought it was too sweet!!
I tried the pretzel crust with a different but similar filling (I prefer fresh lime juice). Gotta say the pretzel crust is not to my liking. It has chunks of pretzel even after using the food processor for a good minute to pulverize. You can also taste the pretzel malty flavor. I'm not sure why you think that should pair with the lime. So I won't try this crust again.
