Directions:
Preheat oven to 325º F. Cook pie crust according to package directions. Combine sugar, cornstarch, milk, water and pinch of salt in a large sauce pan, whisking occasionally. As the mixture reaches a simmer and begins to thicken and turn clear, whisk in eggs yolks, 2 at a time. Slowly and whisking constantly, add the lemon juice, zest and Limoncello. Add butter in pieces, one at the time. Remove from heat and pour into prepared crust. Beat the egg whites, cream of tartar and remaining salt until soft peaks form. Beating constantly, gradually add confectioner's sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Spread meringue over pie filling. Cook until set and golden brown, 14 - 16 minutes.
