Notes: This makes a nice pudding also. Top with whipped cream, meringue made with 3 egg whites,1/8 cream of tartar, 1/3 c. granulate sugar. Whip egg whites until foamy and stiff enough to make peaks, then mix cream of tartar and sugar together and gradually add to mixture to egg whites all the while beating on high until stands good peaks. Bake meringue for 15 minutes at 375º to 400º.until peaks turn brown. Teri's husband likes butterscotch pie with whipped cream.
