1. 1

   Mix graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar and the margarine well. Press firmly into 9-inch pie plate. Bake at 375 degrees for 6-9 minutes, or until edges are browned; cool before filling. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Combine condensed milk and egg yolks on low speed of electric mixer.

2. 2

   Slowly add lime juice, mixing until well-blended. Pour into the baked, cooled pie shell. Beat egg whites with vanilla and cream of tartar until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar, beating until stiff and glossy peaks form and all sugar is dissolved. Spread meringue over filling, sealing to edge of pie crust. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until meringue is golden. Refrigerate several hours or overnight.
