    I've been on a key lime kick for a few weeks now and this recipe is going to keep me wanting more! Midgelet, thank you for this recipe! I can't wait to try it and if I keep thinking about it, I just might make it tonight! Thank you for dessert! (How do you think this would taste with a few chocolate shavings on top? Yum?)
