    Title: Key Lime Tart
    Categories: Pies, Desserts, Cireus, Dairy
    Yield: 6 Servings

    1 Baked Pastry Tart Shell
    4 lg Egg yolks
    14 oz Can (1 1/4 c) sweetened
    - condensed milk
    1 ts Fine shredded lime peel
    1/2 c Lime juice (10 to 12 Key
    - limes or 4 to 6 Persian
    - limes) or bottled Key lime
    - juice
    Few drops green food
    - colouring (opt)

    MMMMM------------------------TART PASTRY-----------------------------
    1 1/4 c All-purpose flour
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/3 c Shortening
    4 5 tablespoons cold water

    MMMMM------------------SWEETENED WHIPPED CREAM-----------------------
    1 c Whipping cream
    2 tb Sugar
    1/2 ts Vanilla

    FOR PASTRY: In a large bowl, stir together flour and salt.
    Using a pastry blender, cut in shortening until pieces are
    pea-size. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon cold water over part of
    the mixture; gently toss with a fork. Push moistened dough
    to the side of the bowl. Repeat moistening dough, using 1
    tablespoon cold water at a time, until all the dough is
    moistened (4 to 5 tablespoons cold water total). Form
    dough into a ball.

    Prepare and roll out Baked Pastry Tart Shell; set aside.

    FOR WHIPPED CREAM: In a chilled mixing bowl combine
    whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla. Beat with an electric
    mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form (tips curl).

    FOR FILLING: in a medium bowl beat egg yolks with a wire
    whisk or fork. Gradually whisk or stir in sweetened
    condensed milk; add lime peel, lime juice, and, if
    desired, food coloring. Mix well (mixture will thicken
    slightly).

    Spoon thickened filling into Baked Pastry Tart Shell. Bake
    in a 350ºF/175ºC oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until set.
    Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Chill 2 to 3 hours before
    serving; cover for longer storage.

    To serve, cut tart into wedges. Pipe Sweetened Whipped
    Cream onto each wedge.

    Makes 8 slices. (At UDD's we aren't stingy. Pies serve
    six rather than a skimpy eight)
