Ingredients: 3/4
cup
graham cracker crumbs 1/3
cup
sugar 1/2
cup
pecan pieces 3
egg whites 1/3
cup
sugar 1
teaspoon
vanilla
Directions:
Mix together the crumbs, 1/3 cup of the sugar and the pecans. Beat the egg
whites until they are stiff, gradually adding the other 1/3 cup of sugar
and the vanilla. Add this to the crumb mixture. Pour it into a greased
pie pan and bake it at 350 oF for 30 minutes. When it has cooled, mash it
down to the shape of the pan. Fill the crust with ice cream and freeze it.
Thaw it slightly before serving, and top with your favorite fruit.
Variations: Instead of using ice cream and freezing the pie, just use your
favorite filling.
