This can be made low fat by using low fat condensed milk and fat free cool whip Ingredients:
1 1/3 cups graham cracker crumbs |
2 tablespoons granulated sugar |
1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted |
4 egg yolks |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |
2 limes, zest of, grated |
1/2 cup lime juice |
2 egg whites |
2 tablespoons granulated sugar |
1 cup heavy cream |
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar |

3. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F To prepare the filling, combine egg yolks, milk, lime rind and juice, and whisk until blended.
