Key Lime Pie

I made this to bring to work for some party - Imagine that. It was actually pretty good. I really liked it.

Ingredients:
3 eggs, separated
1 (14-ounce) can EAGLE BRAND® Sweetened Condensed Milk (NOT evaporated milk)
1/2 cup lime juice
2 or 3 drops green food coloring (optional)
1 (9-inch) graham cracker crust

Instructions: Preheat oven to 325°F. In medium bowl, beat egg yolks on low speed; gradually beat in EAGLE BRAND® and lime juice until smooth. Stir in food coloring (optional). Pour mixture into pie crust. Bake 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. Top with Cool Whip and refrigerate, covered.

Top can be decorated with very thin slices of lime. (To do this, cut really thin slices of lime, then cut the slice half way across then twist it for a cute decoration). See how easy that is? This is the way I make my lemon pie too. Just substitute the lime juice for lemon juice.
