My MIL use to make this with brandy and she called it black bottom pie. After she passed away I searched and searched for a black bottom pie recipe that was like hers. Well this is it. Most black bottom pie recipes have the egg whites as a meringue on top of the pie and no whipped cream. Thank you for bringing this recipe to me. YMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!Reply
