Gradually add condense milk and continue to beat until mixture is rather thick and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Lower speed and slowly add key lime juice, mixing until just combined. Pour filling into chilled pie shell. Place pie on center over rack and bake until set, about 10 minutes. Transfer pie to wire rack and let cool thoroughly, then refrigerate until very cold, at least 2 hours. Freeze for 15 or 20 minutes; remove from freezer 20minutes before serving. Before making whipped cream, chill mixing bowl and beaterss for best results. Just before serving pie, beat heavy cream , add powdered sugar and continue to beat until nearly stiff, but not grainy.
