Directions

  1. Dissolve gelatin in hot water in small bowl.

  2. Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.

  3. Mix Neufchatel cheese and green food coloring in a mixing bowl with an electric mixer on low until smooth and even in color. Add gelatin mixture and continue mixing to incorporate. Reserve a pinch of lime zest for garnishing the fishing pie, beat lime zest and lime juice into the cheese mixture.

Recipe Yield

1 pie

Recipe Note

This is my no-bake answer to traditional Key lime pie. It is quite rich with a more delicate lime flavor.
