Add Step-by-Step Photos	Rosemaryblue / All my dishes 2 years ago Delicious lemon meringue with a billowing meringue made with 1-1/2 cups powdered sugar. Using powdered sugar instead of granulated and cooking at a low temperature for a longer time keeps the meringue from weeping. Prep:5m Cook:20m Servings:8	Rosemaryblu

Ingredients

1 baked 9-inch pie crust

1-1/2 cups water

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

6 large egg yolks

5 tablespoons cornstarch

2 tablespoons grated lemon peel

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter

MERINGUE

7 large egg whites

1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

1-2/3 cups powdered sugar

Directions

Whisk first 7 ingredients in heavy medium saucepan to blend

Using whisk, stir over medium heat until filling thickens, and just begins to boil, about 20 minutes

Remove from heat

Whisk in butter

Spoon hot filling into prepared baked, COOLED crust

MERINGUE

Using electric mixer, beat egg whites in large stainless bowl at low speed until foamy

Beat in cream of tartar and 1 tablespoon of the sugar

Gradually beat in remaining sugar 1 tablespoon at a time

Beat at medium speed until stiff and glossy peaks form, about 8 minutes

Spread meringue over warm filling, covering completely, sealing meringue to crust edges and mounding in center

Bake pie for 30 minutes at 300 degrees

Reduce oven temperature to 275, and continue to bake until pie is golden brown and set when pie is shaken slightly, about 50 minutes in all

NOTE: THIS IS PREPARED DIFFERENTLY THAN MOST LEMON MERINGUE PIES, BUT IT IS WONDERFUL!!

Cool pie on rack for about 4 hours
