4 egg whites
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup white sugar
4 egg yolks
½ cup white sugar

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor and texture.
  • Make sure your pie crust is well-chilled before baking. This will help it to hold its shape and prevent it from shrinking.
  • Bake the pie in a preheated oven. This will help to ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set properly.
  • For a creamier filling, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch pie plate. Just be sure to trim the excess dough around the edges.
  • You can decorate the pie with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or chocolate shavings.

Conclusion:

Amish Angel Cream Pie is a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling, flaky crust, and angel food cake topping, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
