The No Recipe "Kiwi" Lime Pie

She did it!!  She made a Key Lime Pie without a recipe!!!!!
.
Two weeks ago, I challenged the Kiwi Flatmate to make a Kiwi Lime Pie without using a recipe.  Two days later, she accepted the challenge, and yesterday, when I came home from school she was in the kitchen debating about whether or not to add more lime juice to her mixture.  
.
To me, baking without a recipe is a thrill seeking adventure that you really, really hope doesn't go wrong - like going commando.  To the Kiwi Flatmate, recipes are extraneous information - like the directions on a shampoo bottle.  Here is what she whipped up:
.
The Kiwi Flatmate's "Kiwi" Lime Pie Ingredients
.

* About 18 key limes, juiced

* Plain cookies for the crust

* Sugar (not used), 1 can of condensed milk, butter (crust), 2 eggs

* 1 bottle of Peppermint Schnapps

.

You might be wondering how the Peppermint Schnapps fit into the equation.  That was the rolling pin for making the pie crust.  She crushed up the cookies, mixed the crumbs with butter, and rolled it out in the pie pan.
.
Then she made the filling.  She first mixed lime juice and egg yolks, but it was too limey, so she added the condensed milk.  Then she had to add more lime juice to make it less sweet.  She didn't want to waste the egg whites, so she whipped them up into a meringue.  Finally, she put it in the oven set at somewhere between 300 and 400 F, and she didn't even set a timer.  We have no clue how long it was in there.

After it had cooled, I had a slice, and it was........

.
......delicious!  Sweet, light, and very yummy.  
.
After we ate the pie, I googled a Key Lime Pie recipe.  Here is the first one that came up:
.
5 egg yolks, beaten
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup key lime juice
.
Nearly identical.  I'm extremely impressed, and I certainly wasn't expecting this. I guess you could say I was sur-pie-sed.
