Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
Lemon filling:
15 oz Milk -- sweetened condensed
1/2 c Lemon juice
1 t Lemon zest
2 Egg yolks
Meringue:
2 Egg whites
1/4 ts Cream of tartar
4 tb Sugar
Graham cracker crust:
18 Graham cracker squares
1/4 lb Butter or margarine,
1/3 c Sugar
1/8 ts Cinnamon

Thoroughly mix crust ingredients and pack into a nine
inch pie pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes and
put aside to cool. Reduce oven temperature to 325
degrees. In a mixing bowl, combine condensed milk,
lemon juice, lemon zest and egg yolks. Stir until
mixture thickens. Pour into cooled crust. Add cream
of tartar to the egg whites and beat until almost
stiff. Add sugar gradually, beating until stiff and
glossy but not dry. Pile lightly on pie filling. Bake
at 325 until lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Cool
thoroughly. Enjoy! Hint: try to get the crust
thickness very even and not too thick. Source: CRS file
