Divinity Nut Pie

Tastes like divinity candy. This is my grandmother's recipe, and it is delicious. You just cannot stop at ONE piece. I sometimes substitute Splenda® for the sugar.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup white sugar
• 3 egg whites
• 1 cup finely chopped walnuts
• 1 (8 ounce) container whipped topping
• 23 saltine crackers, finely crushed
• ⅔ cup sweetened flaked coconut

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Butter a 9-inch pie pan.

Step 2

Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until foamy. Gradually add sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form soft mounds rather than a sharp peak.

Step 3

Fold crackers and walnuts into egg mixture; pour mixture into the prepared pie pan.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until pie is set in the middle, about 30 minutes. Cool pie completely in a wire rack.

Step 5

Fold coconut into whipped topping in a bowl. Top cooled pie with coconut whipped topping.
