Any pie recipe like key lime recipe or lemon meringue is lovely made with ginger snaps/biscuits - same method as other biscuit crust. Gives the pie a tangy taste.made in South Africa!
I love Key Lime Pie. A nice twist is to make the base with crushed digestives and butter base. Makes the pie a little richer - truly yummy.
