PRUNE WHIP PIE
Whips are desserts made of sugar and stiffly beaten egg whites or cream and usually flavored with fruit. Prune whip can be viewed as not only a treat to enjoy at the end of a meal, but also a delicious way to add fiber to the daily consumption of food. Top this treat with a little lightly sweetened whipped cream or good vanilla ice cream. From the Western chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180 deg Celsius. Line a pizza tray (or flat tray) with baking paper.
- On a floured surface place the pastry sheets on top of each other, then roll to a 36cm circle. Trim edges if needed. Lay over pizza tray - there should be a 6cm overhang.
- Sprinkle pastry with the ground almonds.
- Wash prunes then de-seed and slice thickly. Add flour and cinnamon to sliced prunes and combine.
- Pile the prune mix onto the pastry, leaving the overhang free. Fold the 6cm edge over the fruit, pleating where needed. This will only partially cover the prunes.
- Brush the pastry with the milk then sprinkle with the sugar.
- Place in oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until prunes have softened and pastry is golden and crisp.
- Serve warm, or cold, with rich cream.

PRUNE PIE
This recipe is more like a giant prune turnover. This is found on many of the pueblos here in NM, and is a great dessert. The crust is more like a cross between a cookie and bread. This recipe is from a small pamphlet called "Sampling New Mexico Foods" printed in 1983, for the E. J. Martinez Elementary School. This recipe is definitely one for those who like to experiment. Many of the ingredients are approximate, as are the prep and cooking times. It's been years since I made this. I've usually seen it done such that the cinnamon is dusted over the top of the crust, instead of added to the prunes.
