Jamaican key lime pie is a super easy, no cook dessert that can easily be adjusted to your taste. More or less lime juice and zest, a little more sweetened condensed milk, you get the idea. You can also decorate it with delicious toppings. I attempted to make the pie look like the Jamaican flag using bananas and chocolate, it was a tasty topping and went great with the sweet and sour key lime. The crust is made with crushed ginger snaps for super easy recipe. Please note the cook time listed in the recipe is chill time. Enjoy!
