    List of Ingredients




    PIE CRUST:
    1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
    1/4 cup margarine -- softened
    1/4 cup sugar
    FILLING:
    1/2 cup Key lime juice -- fresh
    14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
    4 egg yolks -- beaten

    4 egg whites
    1 lime -- thinly sliced

    Recipe



    CRUST: Combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Add softened margarine
    to mixture and blend well. Press mixture on the bottom and up the sides
    of a 9" pie pan. Shell can be easily formed by sandwiching the mixture
    between 2-9" pans (grease the upper pan so that it will release easily).
    Bake for 5-8 minutes in an preheated 3250F oven. Remove and let cool.

    FILLING: Use a mixer at low speed to blend the condensed milk and egg
    yolks. Slowly add the lime juice Mix until it thickens. Pour into the
    cooled crust and refrigerate overnight.

    TOPPING: Whip egg yolks at high speed until meringue consistency Cover
    pie, add lime slices and return to refrigerator for another hour. Serve
    chilled.
