White Potato Pie

A good pie to make with
leftover mashed potatoes.

Ingredients:
2 cups mashed potatoes
3 eggs
2 cups light cream
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
2 nine inch unbaked pie shells

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Separate egg yolks from whites.
Reserve yolks. In a mixing bowl,
beat the egg whites with mixer
until stiff peaks form.
Place this bowl in the refrigerator.
In a separate bowl, beat egg yolks.
Stir in cream, mashed potatoes,
sugar, vanilla and salt.
Beat until smooth.
Take the bowl of stiffened egg whites
and fold into the mixture.
Lumps are ok- this is to form a
chiffon texture throughout the pie.
Pour the mixture into the 2 pie shells,
and sprinkle with nutmeg and cinnamon.
Wrap the edges of the pie with tin foil,
covering the rim of the crust.
Place pies on the center rack
of your oven, and bake for 25 minutes.
Remove pies from oven, remove tin foil,
and place pies back in the oven,
cooking another 15 to 20 minutes,
or until the crust is done.
Allow the pies to cool before serving.
