Key Lime Pie...Almost!

This is a quick and easy dessert to make. It is also very light and refreshing. Not the same as a real Key Lime Pie but it is a delicious replacement.


Crust

16 Graham Crackers
1/4 cup Butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
In a medium bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs and melted margarine. Place mixture in a 9 inch pie pan that has been prepared with cooking spray and press firmly into bottom and up the sides of pan. Bake in preheated oven for 8 minutes. Cool completely before pouring the filling into the crust.

Filling

1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup lime juice (approx. 2 - 3 limes)
1 tub Cool Whip

In a large bowl, mix sweetened condensed milk and lime juice. Add Cool whip and mix till smooth. Pour mixture into prepared graham cracker crust. Garnish with a variety of berries. Place in freezer. Allow to thaw slightly before cutting and serving.

Enjoy!
