1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup fresh or bottled Key lime juice

Beat egg yolks in a medium bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until pale. Beat in condensed milk and lime juice until well blended. Pour into crust. Bake in center of oven 25-30 minutes until filing is set. Cool pie on a wire rack, then refrigerate at least 4 hours until cold.
Shortly before serving, beat cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form when beaters are lifted. Garnish with lime slices if desired.
