Sherry's Mango Pie

(Shared Recipe Submitted by Sherry L. Michie)

Sherry said she sometimes makes this pie with peaches or mangos that can be purchased in a jar.

• 1 graham cracker crust
• 4 egg whites
• 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
• Pinch of salt
• 1/2 cup sugar
• Mangoes or peaches, fresh or canned, drained if using canned
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• One carton (8 ounces) whipping cream, whipped
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Beat the egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt until stiff, then add 1/2 cup sugar, beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla. Pour this mixture into the graham cracker crust, mounding up around the edges. Bake 25-30 minutes at 350° F. After 5 minutes turn down to 300° F. Cool. Place sliced mangos or the peaches on top. Mix the 2 tablespoons powdered sugar with whipping cream and beat until it holds a stiff peak. Spread over top of mangos. Sometimes, I decorate the top of the pie with thin slices of mangos (in a pinwheel in center of pie).
