- 1 (7.5 ounce) package lemon pie filling
- 2 eggs, separated
- 1/3 cup cold water
- 1 3/4 cups boiling water
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- Crush cereal to 250 ml (1 cup). Combine with brown sugar and 75 mL (1/3 cup) butter, mixing well. Reserve 50 ml (1/4 cup) crumbs. Press remainder evenly into bottom of 20 cm (8-inch) springform pan ( or 23 cm (9-inch) pie plate ) to form crust. Bake at 180 degrees C (350 degrees F) 7 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool.

- Pour half of the filling onto crust. Gently fold remainder into egg whites. Spread over first layer; sprinkle with reserved crumbs. Chill about 3 hours. Refrigerate leftovers.
