Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
1 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp grated lemon rind
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
3 tbsp lemon juice
4 eggs, separated

Whip half of the cream until stiff and fold into the lemon filling. Pour into the meringue shell, and chill until the filling is set.
Whip the remaining cream with the remaining two tablespoons sugar, and spoon on top of the pie. Chill, uncovered for 24 hours.
