Key Lime Pie



Here is my Key Lime Pie recipe that some of my friends requested I post. It is the Weight Watchers version and is yummy.....and a lot less fat. It is a great and easy dessert for last minute entertaining. You can place a little fat free Cool Whip on top or a sweet little flower for garnish before serving. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
Graham Cracker Crust
14 oz. fat-free Eagle Brand sweetened, condensed milk
8 0z. fat free egg substitute-I use the Egg Beaters brand in the carton
1/2 cup of fresh lime juice-I use the bottled lime juice
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place graham cracker crust on a baking sheet; set aside.
Whisk together condensed milk, egg substitute and lime juice. Pour mixture into crust.
Bake until the center looks set but still slightly quivery, like gelatin, about 18-20 minutes.
Cool completely (VERY IMPORTANT) on a wire rack.
When completely cooled, transfer to refrigerator and chill completely, about 1 hour-2 hours.
If desired, spread whipped,fat free topping over cooled pie!

Looks great! Your high school homemaking teacher, Mrs. Fowler, would be so proud of you!

I am going to try it next time I have company.
