Our latest ice-cream flavor is key-lime. Not only was this flavor rich, creamy and flavorful but it also required no cooking! No eggs, no custard, just mix, chill, blend and freeze. Perfect. I imagine this is one of those ice-cream recipes that you could make without a ice-cream maker. You'd just need to keep stirring it every 20-30 minutes (manually) as it freezes. Just a thought.
You could also make it key lime-pie by adding some graham crackers or graham cracker crumbs to your bowl. I didn't have any in the house (shocking I know since I have children) so I ate it plain, with berries or with meringues on top. Yummy!!
