Key Lime Pie
Key Lime Pie is an easy dinner. Made with 3 eggs, yolks and whites separated, 1 (14 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk (not evaporated milk), 3/4 c. lime juice, 1 (9-inch) baked and cooled pie shell (a frozen 9-inch pie crust, baked in its own aluminum container will not hold all the filling) and 6 tbsp. sugar, this recipe delivers authentic, satisfying flavors. A classic recipe that has been enjoyed for generations.
