Aunt Mabels Snowflake Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Soften knox gelatin in 1/4 cup water and let set.
• Mix together in a saucepan the sugar, flour and salt.
• Stir in milk; cook over low heat, stirring constantly until thick. Cook for 1 additional minute after mixture thickens.
• Remove from heat, stir in gelatine mixture and cool.
• Beat the 3 egg whites; add cream of tartar and the other 1/2 cup sugar. Beat until glossy. Add vanilla and almond extracts.
• Fold in Cool Whip and coconut.
• Put in baked pie shell and refrigerate.

Steps:

• Peel and slice apples. Toss with sugars, cinnamon and flour. Set aside.
• Roll crust to make slightly larger to fit 10-inch glass pie pan. Fit bottom crust in pie pan. Turn in apple mixture and dot with butter. Put crust on top and crimp edges of crust together.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Wet hands with water and dampen top of pie. Sprinkle with additional sugar. Puncture top of pie with fork so the steam can escape.
• Bake for 15 minutes in preheated oven. Reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking for about 45 minutes more, until crust is golden brown. It's a good practice to place a piece of aluminum foil slightly larger than the pie under the pie plate to catch overflows. Serve warm.
