A recipe from the late Kenneth Roberts.
- 2 tablespoons gelatin
- 1/2 cup cold water
- 6 well beaten egg yolks
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 pint cream, stiffly beaten
- 1/2 cup New England rum (Caldwell's or Medford)
Bake a large-size graham-cracker pie shell according to the directions on the package and let it cool. Soak the gelatin in the water, then bring it to a boil and stir it into a mixture of the egg yolks and sugar. Fold in the whipped cream and the rum, pour the mixture into the baked pieshell, and chill. Serve topped with more whipped cream: (This does seem, really, to be gilding the lily!)
