How To Make no guilt key lime pie
-
Step 1Heat oven to 350°F. Place cereal in resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag and finely crush with rolling pin or meat mallet until cereal looks like graham cracker crumbs (or finely crush in food processor).

Step 2In medium bowl, mix crust ingredients until blended. Press crust mixture evenly and firmly in bottom and up side of 9-inch glass pie plate. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until firm. Cool completely, about 1 hour. ( WHEN I AM IN A HURRY, I USE A PURCHASED 9 INCH GRAHAM CRACKER OR VANILLA WAFER CRUST.
