Recipe: Irish Whiskey Pie

IRISH WHISKEY PIE

1 envelope unflavored gelatin
2 Tbsp. sugar, divided use
Dash salt
2 eggs, separated (pasteurized)
2/3 cup light cream
1/4 cup Irish whiskey
1 Tbsp. mint jelly
2 3/4 cups whipped cream or whipped topping, divided use
Green food coloring
Chocolate ready-to-use pie crust

Combine (dry) gelatin, 1 tablespoon sugar, and salt in saucepan.

Beat egg yolks slightly. Add egg yolks, light cream and whiskey to gelatin mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens slightly.

Stir in mint jelly. Chill until mixture begins to thicken.

Beat egg whites to soft peaks. Beat in remaining 1 tablespoon sugar until mixture holds a stiff peak. Fold beaten egg whites and 2 cups whipped topping into custard mixture. Add green food coloring to desired shade.

Turn into crust. Garnish with remaining whipped topping and refrigerate until firm.
