Ingredients:  
4 egg yolks
2 cans sweetened condensed milk
1 cup lime juice
1 graham cracker crust
Directions:
Directions:
Thoroughly mix the condensed milk and the lime juice. IN A SEPARATE BOWL...beat the egg yolks until smooth. Take a tbsp of the condensed milk and mix it into the eggs. When combined add another couple spoonfulls to the eggs. Now that your egg mix is no longer bright yellow add it to the big bowl of milk and lime juice...This is what people mean by tempering. If you just dump it all into a bowl together...you get really creamy filling with scrambled egg bits. Lime and egg DO NOT MIX ALONE. The citric acid will "cook" the eggs.

Bake in preheated 375 oven for 20-25 minutes. Allow to cool. Top with whipped topping and garnish with lime slices if desired.
