Number of Servings:
Ingredients:
- 1 - crumb or baked 8-inch pie shell
- 1/2 cups - lemon juice
- 1 teaspoons - grated lemon rind or 1 tsp lemon extract
- 1 cans - Eagle Brand sweetened condensed milk
- 2 - egg yolks beaten
- 2 - egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoons - cream of tartar
- 3 1/2 tablespoons - sugar
Directions:
Mix lemon juice, lemon rind (or extract), condensed milk, and 2 egg yolks (beaten with a fork or whisk) well and pour into the pie shell.
With electric mixer, beat the 2 egg whites with cream of tartar and slowly add sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks are formed. Pile the meringue lightly onto the pie and bake in the oven at 325 degrees F for 15-20 minutes until the meringue is lightly brown. Cool and chill.
If you do not want to make the meringue, add the egg whites into the pie mixture with the other ingredients and bake the pie for 25 minutes; then after cooled, top with whipped topping.
