Cream Pie

ANGEL CREAM PIE

2 cups sugar

2 egg whites, beaten stiff and folded into the cream and sugar

Nutmeg

 

Pour into unbaked pie shell and sprinkle nutmeg on top.  Bake 30 minutes at 350F.

 

This is a recipe from my great grandmother Jerusha Catherine Craft Peters (my mother's maternal grandmother).  Mother says it was delicious, but that those who have tried to duplicate it have failed as it tends to fall.
