ingredients
PIE CRUST
1 1/4 cup 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
TOPPING
4 egg whites
1 lime, thinly sliced
directions
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 325 degrees F 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 whites at high speed until meringue consistency Cover pie, add lime slices and return to refrigerator for another hour. Serve chilled.

Good job, had family from just off us 1 in south Dade co since the 1920's . Only difference was they picked the limes off there trees & then used zest. I also think we id not have to bake back in the "DAY". Thank you I just was not sure how many eggs. JJ
