                         Lemon filling:
   15       oz           Milk -- sweetened condensed
      1/2   c            Lemon juice
    1       t            Lemon zest
    2                    Egg yolks
                         Meringue:
    2                    Egg whites
      1/4   ts           Cream of tartar
    4       tb           Sugar
                         Graham cracker crust:
   18                    Graham cracker squares
      1/4   lb           Butter or margarine,
      1/3   c            Sugar
      1/8   ts           Cinnamon
 
   Thoroughly mix crust ingredients and pack into a nine
   inch pie pan. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes and
   put aside to cool.  Reduce oven temperature to 325
   degrees.  In a mixing bowl, combine condensed milk,
   lemon juice, lemon zest and egg yolks.  Stir until
   mixture thickens. Pour into cooled crust.  Add cream
   of tartar to the egg whites and beat until almost
   stiff. Add sugar gradually, beating until stiff and
   glossy but not dry. Pile lightly on pie filling. Bake
   at 325 until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.  Cool
   thoroughly. Enjoy! Hint: try to get the crust
   thickness very even and not too thick. Source: CRS file
