A light, fluffy pie because the whipped egg whites are folded into the pie itself rather than used for a meringue topping. Ingredients:
5 egg yolks |
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk |
1/2 teaspoon lime zest |
2/3 cup lime juice |
3 egg whites |
1 9-inch baked pie crust (i prefer a graham cracker crust) |
Directions:
1. Beat yolks until thick. Gradually add sugar; beating constantly. Add lime rind and juice; mix well.
2. Beat egg whites in a separate bowl until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into lime mixture.
3. Spoon mixture into shell. Bake at 325°F for 25 minutes.
4. Cool to room temperature and chill for 3 hours. Top with whipped cream.
