I'm not really sure about this recipe - is it a torte or is it a pie? One thing I am sure about, it's absolutely delicious and it's a snap to make. From the Nabisco Graham Cracker box, first printed in the 1940's.
INGREDIENTS
3 egg whites
1 cup granulated sugar
12 squares Nabisco Graham Crackers, finely rolled, about 1 cup crumbs
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup heavy cream, whippedBeat egg whites until soft peaks form; gradually add sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Combine next 3 ingredients; fold into egg whites.
Spread in a greased 9-inch pie plate. Bake in the center of a preheated 350 degree oven for 30 minutes. Cool thoroughly. Spread with whipped cream. Chill 6 hours or overnight.
