I have been making almost the same recipe for years, that I modified from a Walt Disney Resorts cookbook. However, I use 2 real eggs. Especially if your eggs are small, you may want to add another egg white or two. The gal who had a lot of trouble with consistency, be careful and do not beat too long, and an egg change may make a difference. Also key limes make a HUGE difference-you can often find a bag in your produce dept. at a regular grocery store. It takes a lot of key limes to make half a cup, be prepared. You can use bottled, but will not have the rind then, and it will not be exactly the same. Also check the temp of your oven-my oven happens to be off 20 degrees, but I know that and adjust, and recheck it about every 6 months to a year. It also finishes cooking a bit out of the oven if the center is just slightly underdone. My family LOVES this, and never pay attention that it is light!11/11/09
