Reviews

  1. I have a much simpler, unbaked recipe that is foolproof and people love it. It has cream cheese, plain gelatin, one avocado, lemon juice, sugar and a graham cracker crust. Refrigerate and top with lightly sweetened sour cream, then garnish with lemon or lime zest, or raspberries or blueberries. A real crowd-pleaser.
     
  2. Great recipe, but the recipe does not specify "sweetened" condensed milk, and it will not work if it isn't.
     
  3. This is really good, no matter how it sounds. Cool, refreshing and a bit hardier than Key Lime.
     
  4. Absolutely worth your time! Perfectly imperfect! I mean, trade in nilla wafers with a Graham crust and boom! Delish! I would also recommend that you use sweetened condensed milk- a tad bit less lime, and more sugar!
     
  5. I wanted to love this pie, but we couldn't finish it. It tasted like a weird key lime pie. Crust was not as good as graham cracker crust, and filling had odd texture. The whipped cream was delicious though. No go for avocado pie.
