This is an old family recipe I have used (my mom called it Chiffon Lime Pie--I love it because it is so light and not so sweet at the condensed milk version--lots of lime flavor! Thanks for reviving it!

I made it diabetic friendly by using Splenda instead of the sugar and used lite whipped topping. Great

The geletin mixture was too thick to mix with eggs and whipping cream. Had to throw everything out! Will not try this one again.

45 minutes in my fridge for the gelatin mix was too long and the mixture formed a mold and which wouldn't mix with the egg white/whipped cream mixture. I ended up dumping everything. I have made key lime pies before and will be sticking with my original recipe from now on.

Based on others' reviews, I omitted the green food coloring. I could not find genuine key lime juice anywhere locally, but luckily found actual key limes at Publix supermarket. The pie was super-delicious and received rave reviews from my book club members when I served it at our meeting. It was easy to make and looked and tasted marvelous. I would make this again anytime.

If you forget about the mix of gelatine and lime juice in the fridge after cooking it, you are dune , you can not mix it with the rest of the ingredients, it's all in 1 block and leave some Big clumps in the mix. Which mean you have to do it again (waste of food and time).

Call it what you want, put key limes in for the juice. The grated lime is for flavor also. The green food coloring is for color. Give me a break! Some people are really nit-picky!

With the use of Key Limes and grated zest this recipe is over the top in taste and mouthwatering delicious. I/we could sit and eat the entire pie.... BJC
