 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
                         Pie shell, baked
    1      tbsp          gelatine
    2      tbsp          cold water
      1/2  c             milk
      1/2  c             maple syrup
      1/4  tsp           salt
    2                    egg yolks -- well beaten
    1      c             whipping cream
    1      tsp           vanilla
    2                    egg whites -- stiffly beaten
 
 Soak the gelatine in the cold water. Heat milk, maple syrup and salt in the
 top if a double boiler, then slowly add the egg yolks. Add the gelatine,
 stir to dissolve and let the mixture cool. 
 
 Whip the cream, flavor it with vanilla and set half of it aside. Fold the
 rest, along with the egg whites, into the cooled custard. Pour into the
 baked pie shell, top with remaining whipped cream and refrigerate until
 well chilled.

 NOTES : Topped with whipped cream and a lavish sprinkling of grated maple
 sugar, this makes an elegant treat.
