Cook commentary
Makes 8 servings.
VARIATION: Lemon Tarts: Use 24 (2 pkg) 3 in/7.5 cm Frozen Tenderflake Tart Shells. Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 15 to 20 minutes.
TIP: Before adding lemon layer, place pie in oven; pour on lemon mixture. This prevents spillage of filling while transferring filled pie to oven.
Frosted Cranberries: Using a fork, dip cranberries (fresh or frozen) in lightly beaten egg white then roll in granulated sugar.
