Mystery Pie

No mystery here as to the great taste of this pie. This is made faster than reading a mystery novel. Speaking of which here are two recommended mystery novels with a spice of Cajun flair – Tami Hoag’s “Lucky’s Lady” and Susan Anderson’s “Exposure” – Mysteries as dangerous as the bayou heat!

Ingredients

  • 3 egg whites
  • 1 cups sugar
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Beat egg yolks until frothy. Add the sugar and beat by hand until stiff. Mix the above with one cup graham cracker crumbs and chopped pecans, salt, baking powder and vanilla.

Step 2

Bake in greased pie plate at 300 degrees for about 20 minutes.
