Key Lime Pie

(My recipes usually come from websites online... I believe this was allrecipes.com, Oh, and BTW, I added to and subtracted things here to make it my own)

Ingredients-

• 5 Egg yolks, Beaten
• 1(14 oz) Can sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 Cup key lime juice*
• 1(9 in.) Graham cracker crust*
• Coconut extract*
• Green and yellow food coloring*
• Whipped cream
  

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F


2. Combine the egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk and lime juice. (* I only found actual "key limes" in Walmart, but I've seen comments in recipes suggesting the use of have lemon juice and have lime juice as a replacement :) So don't freak out!... Mix well.


3. Now is where I added just a BIT of green and yellow food coloring. (*3 parts green:1 part yellow). This is optional.... I added the color because the batter looked a little orange snot-ish from the eggs... sorry, but it DID.


4. Pour the mixture into one 9 inch pie crust... *or do like I did and make about 6 or 7 mini pies! :)


5. Next, bake in your preheated oven for about 10 15 mins.


6. Cooooooooool time....


7. Then! My favorite!- Decorate with any kind of whipped topping! (* I added some coconut extract to some Cool Whip... Yum! Talk about refreshing!)


8. Do I really need to tell you to eat them now!?

The Finished Product!

One of the pies.. Mmmm.. Have a piece!
