AUNT IRENE'S GRAHAM CRACKER PIE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Heat the oven to 350 F. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar; mix to blend.
• Use 3/4 of the graham cracker mixture to cover a deep-dish pie pan. Press the mixture well with your fingers to cover the bottom and sides of the dish. Set aside the remaining mixture for later use.
• Bake the crust for 10 minutes. Remove the pie crust from the oven and set it aside to cool.
• Reduce oven temperature to 325 F.
• In a heavy, medium saucepan , combine the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Whisk in the milk and egg yolks, then place the pan over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken and gently boil, or about 5 to 6 minutes.
• Continue cooking, whisking, until very thick, about 1 to 2 minutes longer. Remove from heat and whisk in the butter, a few pieces at a time. Stir in the vanilla and mix well.
• Pour the hot filling into the cooled graham cracker pie crust. Set aside.
• In a mixing bowl, beat the egg whites at high speed until foamy.
• Add the cream of tartar and gradually add the sugar. Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
• Stir in the vanilla extract and gently fold.
• Spread the meringue mixture to top the prepared pie.
• Sprinkle with the reserved graham cracker mixture and place the pie in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the meringue is browned.
• Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving.
• Enjoy.

OLD-FASHIONED CHOCOLATE PUDDING PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees and lightly spray a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick cooking spray.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the graham crumbs and sugar. Drizzle in the oil or melted margarine. Use a spoon to blend the mixture thoroughly to moisten the crumbs, then drizzle in the soy milk and stir again to form a crumbly dough.
• Pour the crumbs into the pie plate. Press crumbs into the sides of the plate first, then work your way down to the bottom. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until firm. Let the crust cool before filling.
• In a small (2-quart) saucepan off the heat, combine 1 cup of the almond milk and the cornstarch. Use a fork to whisk until the cornstarch is good and dissolved. Whisk in the remaining almond milk, the sugar, cocoa powder and salt. It's O.K. if the cocoa is a bit clumpy at first; it will dissolve eventually.
• Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking occasionally. Keep a close eye because once boiling, you want to lower the heat and bring it to a slow rolling boil. Whisk consistently until the mixture is thickened, which should be about 7 minutes.
• Add the chocolate chips and mix to melt. Stir in the vanilla extract. Pour the pudding into the prepared pie shell and let cool for about 15 minutes on the counter, just until it stops steaming like mad. To keep a skin from forming, place a circle of parchment paper over the filling. Refrigerate and let set for at least 3 hours.
