     Title: Preacher's Sour Cream Lemon Meringue Pies
Categories: Pies, Pastry, Citrus, Dairy
     Yield: 12 Servings

     2    Baked 9" pie shells; cooled

MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
     2 c  Sugar
   1/4 c  + 2 tab cornstarch
   1/4 lb Butter; softened
     2 tb Fresh grated lemon rind
   1/4 c  + 2 tb FRESH SQUEEZED lemon
          - juice (PLEASE DON'T RUIN
          - THIS PIE WITH THAT BOTTLED
          - STUFF..UGH!)
     6 lg Egg yolks; beaten
     2 c  Milk
    16 oz Carton dairy sour cream

MMMMM--------------------------MERINGUE-------------------------------
     6 lg Egg whites; room temp
       pn Salt
   1/4 ts Cream of tartar

 Place sugar and lemon peel into a processor and process
 until lemon peel is finely minced. Place sugar mixture
 in a heavy-bottomed saucepan. Add cornstarch, butter and
 beaten egg yolks. Slowly stir in milk using a whisk over
 low heat, and stir constantly until thickened. This
 takes about 5-7 min. DO NOT SCORCH!!

 Cool completely in the refrigerator at least 3 hours.
 When completely chilled, whisk in the sour cream and
 return to refrigerator while preparing the meringue!!

 In a mixing bowl, combine the egg whites, salt and cream
 of tartar. Beat well with electric mixer and slowly add
 in 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Beat until stiff, but not
 dry...just until meringue holds a stiff peak when beater
 is lifted.

 Set oven @ 425.F/220.C.

 Divide the lemon filling between the cooled, baked
 crusts. Now top each pie with half of the meringue,
 making sure to seal the meringue all away around the
 edge of the pie touching the crust and mound high in
 the middle...use the back of a spoon to make little
 decorative swirls and peaks.

 Place pies in heated oven for about 6-10 minutes just
 long enough to set the meringue and slightly brown the
 top. Allow the pie to cool for at least 30 min before
 slicing.

 Chill any leftovers.
