This one takes a little time, due to the cool downs required, but it is well worth the effort.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 325. With electric mixer, beat egg whites with salt, vinegar and 1/4 tsp. cinnamon until stiff. Gradually add 1/2 c. sugar. Spread over bottom and sides of cooled pie shell. Bake 12 - 14 minutes until lightly browned. Set aside to cool.
- 2. Melt chocolate chips in microwave-safe container, stirring at 40 second intervals, until completely melted. Blend egg yolks with hot water, and stir into chocolate until smooth. Spread 4 or 5 tbsps over cooled meringue, and chill remaining chocolate until it begins to thicken - about 20 minutes.
- 3. With electric mixer, whip cream til thickened, and beat in remaining sugar and cinnamon. Spread half over chocolate layer, and fold remainder of chocolate mixture into remaining half of cream mixture. Carefully spread chocolate blend over cream layer. Chill four hours. Garnish with a big fluff of Cool Whip and drizzle with caramel ice cream topping. Also tasty (and pretty) topped with pecan halves and/or chocolate curls.
LAURIE'S APPLE PIE IN THE SKY
I love the smell of my house when there is an apple pie baking. It seems to linger in the air for days. I use Granny Smith apples as they always hold up very well for baking. If using a sweeter apple, decrease the amount of sugar by 1/8 of a cup. The Granny Smith apples are tart so the two sugars add a nice flavor that allows the taste of the apple to shine through, nicely. I call it Apple Pie in the Sky because my family is always over the moon when I bake this dessert.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place the oven rack in the center position. Prepare a baking sheet with aluminum foil to prevent oven spills.
- Unroll and place the bottom pie crust in a 10" deep dish pie plate.
- Peel, core and thinly slice the apples in a large bowl. Add in the sugars, spice and flour. Toss well to evenly coat.
- Pour the apples into the prepared crust in the pie pan. Dot the top of the apple mixture with the butter.
- Place the top crust over the apples. Dampen the bottom edge of the top crust with a little water. Tuck the top edge under the bottom pastry edge and press to seal. You may flute the edge all around with a decorative pattern or a dinner fork.
- Brush the top crust with milk using your fingers or a pastry brush. Cut a few steam vents in the top crust with a sharp knife in some all over pattern or random fashion.
- Place the pie on the foil lined cookie sheet and place into 450 degree oven for 15 minutes. Place some foil over the edges of the crust to prevent over-browning. Lower oven to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 50-60 minutes until the apples are bubbling and the crust is nicely browned. NOTE: Remove the foil from the edges of the crust 10 minutes before the pie is done to get a nice even color.
- Allow the pie to cool and serve with whipped cream or ice cream. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
APPLE PIE (PIE IN THE SKY)
Steps:
- Combine sugar, flour and cinnamon. Lay the pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate and dust it with about one-fourth of the sugar mixture.
- Alternate layers of apples in concentric circles, dusting each layer with the sugar mixture. Dot the top layer with butter.
- Lay over the crust and crimp the edges. Beat the egg with the cream and thinly glaze the pie crust with several tablespoons of the mixture. Cut vents in the pie.
- Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes, then lower heat to 350 for 40 more minutes or until crust is golden.
