  1. Howdy from Katy, Texas 👋🤠👩🏻‍🌾 I’m making a key lime pie with gingersnap cookies as the crumb crust. However my question is when adding the “melted butter” or also to cookie batters should the melted butter be when adding be cooled completely or still a bit warm for making the crumbs or batter stick together before forming the pie 🥧 crust or cookie 🍪 ? And can brown butter also be used? And if so, does it also need to be cooled completely or still warm when adding? Thank you for sharing & being an inspiration. 🧁🥧🗝🍋🔑🍈💚🤍💛🤎💟

  2. Hi John, thank you for the recipe. I made it, chilled it overnight and ate it yesterday…my family loved it! It was so flavorful! My brother said he used to have key lime pie for dessert like 2 times per week at college, and this reminded him those times at LSU.
    I baked the pie some more minutes, because the condensed milk I used was a little runny compared to yours, but it came out very creamy. Yum!

  3. You said that cream pies are not very popular in the US.
    Have you ever tried Brazilian strawberry pie?
    It is basically a pie crust that has already been baked and filled with pastry cream. Well-washed strawberries cut in half are placed on top of the cream.
    The strawberries can be topped with "jelly glaze" or strawberry gelatin.

    It is the favorite recipe in Brazil.
    And speaking of favorite pies in Brazil, have you heard of our beloved "Holandesa pie"?
