No Bake Lime Pie
A no bake lime pie recipe with a sweet biscuit crust. An easy make ahead dessert for summer BBQ's.
NO BAKE LIME PIE
This No-Bake Lime Pie is a really easy make ahead dessert to have in your repertoire. It's a cross between a no bake cheesecake and key lime pie.
It's a real crowd pleaser and will happily sit in the fridge for a couple of days.
The pie is quite rich, so the recipe (made in a 20cm springform tin) will easily feed 8 - 10 people, the perfect size for a family gathering or summer BBQ.
TOP TIPS FOR MAKING NO-BAKE LIME PIE
- Try using ginger nut biscuits instead of digestives for a more grown up taste.
- For a 'fancier' dessert, pipe some whipped double cream around the edge of the pie and decorate with slices of lime.
- I whip the condensed milk, lime juice and double cream with a hand held electric whisk but you can do it by hand if you want to, it will give you a good arm workout!
- You can make the Lime Pie up to 3 days before you need it so it's a great make ahead dessert.

I love ginger biscuits too...but the kids prefer digestives
