MILE HIGH PIE

Steps:

• Combine walnuts and biscuits. Add butter and mash thoroughly.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Butter a 10-inch diameter springform pan and press biscuit crust into base and 2-inches up side. Cover this crust with waxed paper, cut to fit bottom exactly. Fill pan with split peas, up to height of sides and bake "blind" for 1 hour. Let cool while still filled.
• When crust is cooled, removed pea weights and paper. Meanwhile, whip egg whites with cold water and salt until peaked. Fold in sugar a little at a time. Add vanilla and keep cool.
• Unmold ice cream from containers and cut horizontally through middle of each to yield 4 discs total. Place disks in pie crust, alternating strawberry and vanilla flavors. Top with meringue, letting it fall all around the ice cream. Set in freezer for 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Remove pie from freezer and place in oven to brown meringue tips. You may also use a blowtorch instead. Serve with chocolate sauce.

MILE HIGH SPAGHETTI PIE

Steps:

• Lightly grease an 8" spring form pan and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Brown sausage in a skillet with onions and garlic, salt & pepper making sure to break up meat into small bits. Pour in sauce and simmer while cooking spaghetti in a seperate pot until just done. Remove sauce from heat and drain pasta. Also, while doing this, thaw the broccoli and squeeze as much water out as possible.
• Press the biscuits into the spring form pan, making sure to press the edges together and up the sides of the pan to form a thin crust covering the entire bottom and sides.
• Spread 1/2 the meat sauce into bottom of the pan. Sprinkle 1/3 of the cheese over sauce. Place all of the pasta on top. Cover pasta with remaining sauce. Sprinkle with 1/3 more cheese. Top this with the broccoli, then the tomato and finally the olives.
• Bake for 20 minutes (everything is cooked so you are just melting cheese and heating through). Remove from oven and top with the remaining cheese, bake for 5 more minutes. Remove and let rest for 10 minutes. Release from the pan and place on a platter to serve.
