Directions:Preheat oven to 350º.
In a medium sauce pan mix dry pudding mix with sugar.
Add liquid ingredients and egg yolks. Whisk until smooth.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a full bubbling boil. Cool 5 minutes, stirring a few times to keep skin from forming.
Pour into pie shell. There will probably be a little extra that you can eat plain or pour into a small ovenproof bowl to make a crust-less pie.
Meringue:
Beat egg whites until they begin to foam. Add cream of tartar.
Continue beating until it turns white and begins to thicken.
Gradually add sugar and continue mixing until sugar is dissolved and soft peaks form. *Option~ put sugar through food processor for 30 seconds to make it superfine so it dissolves better.
Spread meringue over pudding. IMPORTANT~ MAKE SURE MERINGUE IS SEALED WELL TO CRUST.
Place into preheated oven for 10-12 minutes until light brown. Turn off oven. Pie can be left in the oven to cool or removed to cool at room temperature.
Place pie in refrigerator to chill. |
