Directions:
Heat together the milk and maple syrup. Stir 1/2 cup of this into the egg
yolks and return this mixture gradually to the hot syrup mixture, beating
constantly. Cook this mixture a little, then add the gelatin which has
been softened in a little cold water. Add the maple flavoring and chill
the mixture until it begins to thicken. Fold in the egg whites, then add
the shipped cream and chopped nut meats. Pour the mixture into a baked pie
shell.
This pie tastes like maple ice cream. If you double the recipe, it makes
three 8-inch pies.
