Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts
Filling
- 10 ounces frozen raspberries
- 1 cup whipping cream
- 1 cup sugar
- 3 egg whites
- Fresh raspberries, for garnish (optional)
Directions
- Set frozen raspberries out to thaw.
- Combine crust ingredients until evenly mixed. Spread mixture on a cookie sheet and bake at 400 F for 12 to 15 minutes. Let mixture cool, and then spread crumbs in a 9- or 10-inch pie pan.
- Whip cream until stiff peaks form; set aside. In a stand mixer bowl, beat thawed berries, sugar, and egg whites for 15 minutes at high speed. The mixture will be similar in consistency to meringue. Fold in cream.
- Add mixture into prepared pie pan and freeze for 6 to 8 hours, or until firm. Serve frozen wedges garnished with fresh berries, if desired.
