My mom and I made these 2 desserts for Easter. Both were new recipes that we had not made before and they were a hit. My family asked for these recipes, so I thought I would also share them with my faithful readers too.
1. It's Chocolate Peanut Butter Gooey Cake. I found this on recipezaar and it was a hit. Hard to not like PB & Chocolate together!
2. Key Lime Pie - we doubled this pie in a 9x13. It looked so decadent with the white chocolate curls and lime peel on top! And my favorite part was the thin layer of toasted almonds in the middle - it was so good! Sorry no pics - there's none left! :)
Crust:
1 C plain flour
2 Tbsp sugar
1/2 C butter (no substitute)toasted almond slivers
Filling:
1 (8oz) pkg cream cheese, room temp.
1 can eagle brand milk
1/3 to 1/2 key lime juice (depending on your taste)
Drop of green food coloring
Topping:
8 oz cool whip
white chocolate shaved into curls
lime zest
Cut butter into flour and sugar until crumbly. Press into pie plate. Bake at 350 degrees for about 15 min. Crust will slide into pan - use a spoon to push it back up about half way through the cooking time. Finish baking and cool. Sprinkle with toasted almonds. Mix all filling ingredients together until smooth. Pour into prepared crust. Top with sweetened whipped cream. Garnish with white chocolate curls and lime zest.
