Sheila'S No-Bake Drambuie Pumpkin Pie
- 1 (9 inch) pie crusts, baked and cooled (or 10-inch tart crust)
- 4 teaspoons unflavored gelatin (Knox is a good way to go)
- 1/4 cup drambuie (1-inchairline" bottle)
- 1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie filling, but actual canned pumpkin)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream (hey, it's the holidays... use the heavy cream!)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 egg yolks, lightly beaten
- 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly ground
- 1/4 teaspoon allspice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- CHIFFON
- 4 egg whites
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 pinch cream of tartar
- Pie Crust:
- Pre-bake your favorite 9" pie crust or a 10" tart crust and cool (heck, use a bought crust if you like).
- Filling:
- In a small bowl sprinkle gelatin over Drambuie to soften for 5 minutes and stir the mixture over hot water (or in the microwave) just until gelatin is dissovled.
- In a heavy saucepan combine the rest of the ingredients (EXCEPT the chiffon ingredients) and cook over moderately low heat stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or spatula for 10 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a bowl, stir in the gelatin mixture and let cool.
- In a large bowl beat 4 egg whites with a pinch of cream of tartar and beat until they hold soft peaks. Beat in 1/3 cup sugar a little at a time, beating until the meringue holds stiff peaks and fold the meringue into the pumpkin mixture.
- Pour the filling in the pie shell and chill the pie, covered for at least 6 hours or overnight.
- Serve with lightly sweetned whipped cream.
