Directions

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

  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.

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

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

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

Recipe Yield

1 9-inch pie

Recipe Note

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.
