I formed this recipe from a combination of many old Key lime pie recipes. It has become a staple at any family gathering, and it is relatively easy to put together.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Combine egg yolks and lime zest in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer until fluffy. Gradually mix in condensed milk and cream of coconut, then beat for 3 minutes longer. Lower speed and add lime juice, vanilla, and nutmeg; mix until just combined. Pour into the crust.
- Bake in the preheated oven until pie is just set in the center, 14 to 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until frothy. Add cream of tartar and beat until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, until stiff, glossy peaks form. Spread over the pie in decorative swirls.
- Broil in the preheated oven until meringue is golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
