A true Key lime pie should not be green!

Ingredients

　　One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk

　　1/2 cup Key lime juice

　　1 teaspoon grated lime zest

　　3 eggs, separated

　　One 8-inch prebaked pie crust or graham cracker crust

　　1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

　　1/4 cup sugar

　　Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. In a medium bowl, combine the milk, lime juice, and zest; blend in the egg yolks. Pour the filling into the crust. For the meringue, beat the egg whites with the cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the sugar until the mixture is stiff. Spread the meringue over the filling; spread it to touch the edge of the crust all around. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the meringue is golden brown.
