This is an easy to make, light custard pie from my husbands grandmother. Use either a graham cracker crust or a pastry crust-either tastes great. I use a deep dish pastry pie crust. This pie tastes better the next day since it give the flavors time to marry and set. Chocolate curls/whipped cream/cool whip can be added before...

Steps:
- 1. Place cottage cheese in a strainer and let drain about 20 minutes or until most of the liquid is drained.
- 2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees
- 3. In a large bowl combine cottage cheese, sugar (or Splenda), flour, lemon juice, vanilla, salt, egg yolks, & evaporated milk. Mix well
- 4. In a separate bowl beat egg whites with an electric mixer until firm. Fold firm egg whites into the batter until smooth.
- 5. Pour batter into pie crusts and sprinkle with cinnamon. Use a little or a lot depending on your taste. I use a lot.
- 6. Bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees, then reduce oven to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 35 - 40 minutes or until knife inserted in the center of each pie comes out clean.
- 7. Cool on racks, then refrigerate. Flavor improves if served a day after baking.
