  • 4. To serve, let pie stand at room temperature to soften slightly for easier slicing, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile in a small bowl with mixer at medium speed, beat cream until stiff peaks form. Top each serving of pie with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with lime peel slivers. Makes 10 servings.
