The crust consists of crushed pretzels and sugar.. I don't have the specifics of the recipe, but I have made the pie before. Crust is composed of butter, sugar and pretzels. Baked and cooled. Filling is sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, triple sec, tequila and whipped cream. One can of sweetened condensed milk is combined with 1/4 cup lime juice first. This will thicken it. This mixture is combined with 1 cup of whipping cream that has been whipped to stiff peaks. THEN the tequila and triple sec are added (I don't know the amounts but I think it was 1/4 cup tequila and 3 T. triple or to taste) This mixture is then poured into the crust and chilled for two hours or so. Garnish with whipped cream and thin lime slices. That's all I recall. Robin Peek rppeek@rodan.acs.syr.edu
