Yield 1 Nine inch pie, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/3 cups milk
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts
1 dash salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 whole egg
5 teaspoons cornstarch
2 egg whites
1 9-inch baked pie crust
1 cup heavy cream, whipped

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of the milk, 1/4 cup of the sugar, 1/4 cup of the nuts, the salt and the vanilla; scald.
  • Mix the remaining 1/3 cup milk with 1 whole egg and cornstarch.
  • Thoroughly stir some of hot mixture into egg mixture (adding a small amount first to even out the temperature helps to prevent the egg from scrambling when added to the rest of the hot mixture); return all to saucepan.
  • Cook 5 more minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens.
  • Cool 1 hour.
  • Beat egg whites until soft peaks form; fold carefully into cooled mixture.
  • Pour into pie shell; chill.
