Ingredients

  • Crust

    • 33 chocolate wafers, divided

    • 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar

    • 2 tablespoons canola oil

    • 2 tablespoons skim milk

    • 1 tablespoon butter

  • Filling

    • 3 cups raspberries, fresh or frozen (thawed)

    • 2 tablespoons lemon juice

    • ¼ teaspoon salt

    • 2 large egg whites, room temperature

    • ½ cup granulated sugar

    • ½ teaspoon cream of tartar

    • Water

Directions

  • Set an oven to 350°F to preheat. Coat a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray.

  • To make the crust, grind 32 wafers with the confectioners' sugar, oil, milk, and butter in a food processor and press the mixture along the bottom and up the sides of pan to create an even, packed crust.

  • Bake for 12 minutes then cool to room temperature.

  • Meanwhile, prepare the filling by pureeing the raspberries, lemon juice, and salt in the food processor until smooth. Strain through a sieve to remove seeds, pressing down with a spatula to get all of the juice.

  • Use a large saucepan to bring one inch of water to a low simmer.

  • Combine the egg whites, granulated sugar, and cream of tartar in a stainless steel bowl and beat until foamy. Continuing to beat and place the bowl over the heated water. Beat over heat until the mixture is very stiff and glossy. This will take about 3-4 minutes.

  • Remove the mixture from heat and continue to beat until it returns to room temperature. This will take about 4 minutes.

  • Add the raspberry puree to this meringue and fold together. Add this filling to the room temperature pie crust. Crush the last chocolate wafer over the top of the pie. Place the pie into freezer for at least 6 hours.
