Key Lime Pie

Key Lime Pie

1pkg. shortbread cookies and 2 tbl. butter
1 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
8 oz. cool whip, can buy 12 oz. and use 4 oz. for garnish
1/2 c. lime juice, I squeeze my own.

Mix milk with cool whip on medium speed until blended. Add lime juice and blend well. Pour into prepared crust and chill at least 3 hours before serving. Garnish if desired with cool whip and lime slice. I also add some green food coloring after I've mixed it all. It contrasts with the cool whip garnishing nicely.
