If life gives you lemons, why not make a pie? This lemon gelatin pie proves that dessert can be both fun and delicious without any complicated fuss.

1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cup sugar
4 eggs, beaten
1/8 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter
3/4 teaspoon grated lemon rind
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped
1 baked 9" pie shell
whipped cream and lemon rind for garnish
Soften gelatin in lemon juice in top of double boiler. Add sugar, eggs, salt and butter; mix well. Cook, stirring over low heat or hot, not boiling water, until the mixture thickens (10 minutes or more).
When properly thickened, the sauce will coat the sides of a wooden spoon. Remove from heat and chill until mixture mounds slightly when dropped from a spoon.
Fold in lemon rind, vanilla and whipped cream. Turn into pie shell. Chill until filling is set.
Garnish with whipped cream and grated lemon rind, if desired. (Freezes well, thaw in refrigerator overnight before serving.)

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
