Ingredients

  • 5 apples, pared, cored and thinly sliced
  • 3 Tbsp. granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp. cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 quart vanilla ice milk
  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/8 tsp. cream of tartar
  • 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

Directions

  1. Arrange sliced apples in a 9-inch pie plate. Combine sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon and salt; sprinkle evenly over apples. Cover with aluminum foil.
  2. Bake in hot oven (425 degrees) 30 minutes, or until apples are just tender. Remove from oven; cool. Refrigerate. This may be done ahead.
  3. At serving time, cover chilled apples with an even layer of ice milk. Place in freezer.
  4. Beat egg whites and cream of tartar until frothy. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, a tablespoon at a time. Continue beating until mixture stands in peaks. Spread meringue over ice milk, being sure to bring it to the edge of the pie plate. Place pie plate in a roasting pan; surround with ice cubes to keep cold.
  5. Bake in very hot oven (500 degrees) 3 minutes, or until meringue is lightly browned. Remove from oven and ice; serve immediately.
