Ingredients
    6 eggs

    1/3 c. Key lime juice
    premade baked 9-inch graham cracker pie crust
    2 Tbsp. sugar
    1 fresh lime
Preparation
    Beat the yolks of 4 eggs and the white of 1 egg until thick. Add condensed milk and beat again.
    Add lime juice and beat until thick.
    In a separate bowl, beat 3 egg whites until dry and fold in the lime, milk and egg mixture.
    Pour into a baked pie crust. Separate 2 eggs.
    Beat the whites with the sugar until stiff peaks form.
    Spread evenly on top of pie.
    Bake in 350\u00b0 oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until meringue is brown, then garnish with thinly sliced limes.
    (Do not overbeat egg whites.
    Do not use a food processor; use a mixer instead.)
