How to make heavenly lemon pie:

Beat 4 egg whites until frothy; add 1 cup sugar, sifted with cream of tartar. Whip until it holds a stiff, glossy peak. Spread the mixture in a well-greased 9-inch pie pan (spread it to the edges with a slight recession in the center) and bake one hour at 275°. Let cool. Mix lemon juice, rind, 4 egg yolks (beaten) and 1/2 cup sugar. Cook over hot water, stirring constantly, until real thick (8 to 10 minutes). Cool. Then fold in 1/2 pint whipped cream or 1 package beaten Dream Whip. Put into baked shell, making sure all pockets are filled. Whip up remaining cream or Dream Whip and put on top. Refrigerate for 24 hours.
