Soda Cracker Pie

3 Egg Whites (at room Temp.) Beat till frothy. Add 1/8 tsp. cream of tater. Dash of Salt. Beat egg whites until stiff, gradually adding 1 Cup of Sugar. Fold into stiffly beaten egg whites the following:

14 Soda Crackers Crushed

Bake at 325 for 1/2 hr. (grease pan.)

My Mom doubles this recipe and puts it in a 9 X 14 Pan. If your not doubling it, use a 8 X 8 pan.

I want to do that....
