How to Make Easy Key West Key Lime Pie

In a large bowl, beat together 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk and 8 ounces cream cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
Gradually add 1 cup fresh key lime juice (about 8-10 limes), mixing until thoroughly combined. The mixture will slightly thicken.
Gently fold in 8 ounces thawed Cool Whip whipped topping until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Pour the mixture into two (9-inch) graham cracker pie crusts.
Garnish each pie with the zest of 1 lime.
Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set completely.
