YUMMMY! I have always wanted to try to make one. Maybe I can figure out how to make it lighter, lol.. ~Mari Just pinned it!
You have to try Mari! Maybe lowfat sour cream and/or lowfat cream cheese? I don’t know if it would still work but you could always try as an option :) xx ♥ m

I saw somewhere where you listed the brand of key lime you used but now I can’t find it. You got it at wegmans. Will you please remind me? I would like to make this this weekend…looks great! Thank you.
Yes Tara!!! On FB :) Got it at Wegman’s (it’s on a fixture at the end near the Jamaican food section in the International aisle) the brand is “Nellie & Joe’s Famous Key West Lime Juice” (http://www.amazon.com/Nellie-Joes-Lime-Juice/dp/B0005XO85A) (I’m pretty sure it was under $5 too.) (ALSO) Looked for it at my other Wegman’s & they had it in the drink mix section (think margarita mix area). So I guess depending on your store…they could be in either spot :) Hope that helps – good luck!!

Wow.. I love the idea of sour cream in there. I think you are definitely the queen of key lime.
