Default Key Lime Pie


I wanted a firm filling and meringue so I used a Paula Deen recipe
because it called for 4 eggs. Plus, I didn't get to the store to buy
the cream cheese I needed to make Becca's version.

I haven't made a meringue pie in years. I can't recall ever having a
problem with "weeping", so this is a first for me. I probably didn't
beat the whites enough, because when I was spreading it I was thinking
that the peaks weren't stiff enough. It also seems to have pulled
away from the edge, I know I had it hitting the crust and it looks
like it deflated a bit, so maybe under-beating is the problem.

In any case, I can hardly wait to dig in... that nut crust was very
tasty when I sampled it last night!

Forget the health food. I need all the preservatives I can get.
