I found this recipe simple to make, however I would recommend altering some of the instructions as I think it's more helpful to use the term 'beat' (with an electric beater) rather than 'whip' as the method. I'd also change it to read 'add sugar one tablespoon at a time' rather than saying 'sprinkle in sugar', and replace 'milky mixture' with 'pie filling'. I'm not sure why there are two step 4s so a little editing on this recipe would go a long way. I also cheated and didn't make a biscuit crumb, instead I used ready-rolled sweet short pastry sheets and blind-baked for 10 minutes, then removed the baking beads and let the inside dry for another minute or two in the oven. I also found that the pie only needed at most 10 minutes of baking before the meringue top started to brown, so I'm not sure what it would have looked like after 40-45 minutes in the oven. Recipe doesn't say what to do with the finely grated rind either, so as indicated in the picture I sprinkled it over the top after I'd served dessert. This dessert can be eaten warm as well, it doesn't need to be cooled. The flavours and textures were lovely though, so with a little more modification this will be a nice dessert to make.

This was a lovely flavour and recipe, just beware of the baking time! Bake for about 10 mins until top is brown, then put tin foil on top to ensure it's cooked through without burning the meringue. Maybe another 5 - 10 mins after the foil in on.

Method
Preheat oven to 170°C. Line base of a 20cm springform tin with baking paper.
Process biscuits until fine crumbs. Add almonds and melted butter, process until combined. Press mixture firmly into the base and 3cm up sides of tin. Refrigerate.
Separate egg yolks, and whisk with sweetened condensed milk. Stir in lime juice. Pour into biscuit base and bake for 5 minutes.
Whisk egg whites until soft peaks form. Sprinkle in sugar and whisk until peaks are glossy. Pipe onto into milky mixture.
Bake for 40-45 mins or until set. Cool. Serve with extra lime slices.
