Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Mush two prepared pie crusts together to line a 9-inch super deep dish pie plate. Crimp the edges decoratively. In a small bowl, whisk together egg yolk and cream to make a glaze. Prick the bottom of the shell with a fork, brush the top edges with the glaze, and line the bottom with parchment paper. Weight the shell with pie weights or dried beans, and bake until the edges begin to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove paper and weights; continue baking until golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes more. Let cool.
- You will need at least 4 9-inch spring-form pans to prepare each layer of the pie separately.
- To make the first layer of pie filling, disolve a packet of gelatin in water and bring to a boil over the stove, turn down the heat and then combine 1/3 cup each of cornstarch & cake flour, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 cup sugar over medium heat. Gradually add 1 cups cold water, and bring to a boil again, whisking constantly, about 4 minutes.
- Remove the pan from heat. Temper 5 egg yolks by beating a small amount of hot mixture into the yolks before adding them to pan. You do not want them to scramble/curdle. You just want to heat the beaten yolks but keep them in a creamy, liquid form. Cook over low heat for 5 minutes.
- Remove the pan from heat, and whisk in the lemon juice and rind. Add the butter one piece at a time. Pour the mixture into a large bowl, and let cool.
- Once cooled, pour the filling into a 9 inch spring form pan, covered with aluminum foil, and chill in the refrigerator until firm, at least 2 hours.
- Repeat the above steps again, for the second layer of pie, and once completed, pour into another 9-inch springform pan and let chill.
- In two additional 9-inch spring form pans, bake two lemon cakes using one half of a box of cake mix (Williams-Sonoma Meyer Lemon Pound Cake Mix) for one pan, and 1/2 the mix for the other pan. Let the cakes cool.
- You should now have 4 layers---- 2 springform pans of chilled pie filling, and 2 spring form pans of thin lemon cake. To assemble the pie, start with the pre-cooked crust and sprinkle a dusting of powdered sugar across the bottom of the crust with either a fork or a brush. Then open the spring form pan of pie filling and place on top of the powdered sugar crust. A layer of lemon cake goes on top of that. Then place the second pie filling layer on top of that. You want to end up with a layer of cake on the very top, and the meringue topping will sit on that top layer of cake.
- To make the meringue, pour the egg whites and creme of tartar into a very clean and dry copper or stainless steal mixing bowl. Beat on a low speed with an electric mixer. Gradually add in the salt and extra-fine sugar, but very very slowly, and gradually turn up the speed of the mixer. You want the egg white to beat till they form soft shiny frothy peaks, but not so stiff that they aren't flexible enough to swirl. Add the Vanilla at the very last moment. With a rubber spatula, swirl the beaten meringue into a 9-inch spring form pan, covering the entire perimeter of the pan and bake for 6 minutes or until lightly brown.
- Let the Meringue topping cool for at least a half hour, then undo the spring form pan and place on top of the other cake/pie layers.
LUSCIOUS LEMON LAYER PIE
Steps:
- Pie Crust: Whisk flour with a fork while still in the bag or cannister. Gently spoon out flour into measuring cups. (This reduces flour by as much as 1/8 to 1/4 cup).
- Then sift flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Add shortening and cut into pea sized bits with pastry blender. Add cold water gradually until just dampened. Place on waxed paper and gather into ball from the outside corners. Press dough into a 6-inch pancake shape. Wrap with plastic wrap.
- Chill at least 30 minutes and then roll out between 2 large pieces of plastic wrap. Remove 1 side of plastic wrap, lightly flour, if necessary, and place into a 9-inch clear glass deep dish pan.
- Remove plastic wrap and flute edges. Prick bottom and sides with a fork. Chill for 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 475 degrees F. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Use extra pastry for cut-outs in the shapes of lemons, stars, etc. for decoration.
- Bottom Layer: In saucepan combine sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Mix with wire whisk; blend in lemon juice and cold water; then add egg yolks and blend until smooth. Add butter and gradually stir in boiling water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly; boil 2 minutes; remove from heat and add lemon extract, zest/peel, and food coloring. Partially cool for 30 minutes, and pour into the baked pie shell. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes before adding second layer.
- Second Layer: In a small bowl, cream sugar and cream cheese with spatula until smooth. Add milk and stir until well blended. Add pudding and beat with electric mixer for 2 minutes until thickened. Pour on bottom layer. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Top Layer: Cream together the sugar and cream cheese until smooth. Fold in the whipped dessert topping and spread on top of cooled lemon pudding. Garnish with extra pastry cutouts, citrus or mint leaves. Chill at least 4 hours before serving.

Steps:
- Brush a 23cm fluted flan tin with melted butter or oil. Place flour, baking powder and butter in food processor.
- Process for 30 seconds using the pulse action. Add water and process a further 30 seconds or until the mixture comes together.
- Turn onto a lightly floured surface and press together until smooth. Roll out the pastry between 2 sheets of plastic wrap, to cover base and side of the tin.
- Ease pastry into the tin and trim edges. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 20 minutes.
- Preheat oven to moderate 180°C/350°F Cut a sheet of greaseproof paper to cover pastry-lined tin.
- Spread a layer of dried beans or rice evenly over the greaseproof paper. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and discard paper and beans. Return the crust to the oven and bake for a further 10 minutes or until it is lightly golden. Allow to cool completely.
- To make filling: Combine flour, cornflour and sugar in a medium pan. Gradually stir in lemon juice and water and blend until smooth. Stir over a low heat until mixture boils and thickens.
- Remove from heat, stir in butter and egg yolks. Return to low heat and stir until butter has melted. Cover with plastic wrap and cool completely. Place in prepared pastry.
- To make topping: Beat egg whites in a large, clean, dry mixing bowl with electric beaters until stiff peaks form. Add sugar gradually, beating constantly until mixture is glossy and thick.
- Preheat oven to moderately hot 210°C.
- Spread the filling over the pastry base and then spoon the meringue on top of the filling, spreading it to the edges of the pie to seal. Peak the meringue using a flat bladed knife.
- Bake for 5 minutes or until meringue is lightly browned on top.
- NOTE: For best baking results make the pastry and the filling the day before and store separately. The meringue only needs to cook for about 5 minutes - enough for it to brown lightly. If left in the oven too long, the pie filling will warm and this makes the pie difficult to cut.

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour 3 8-inch cake pans.
- Mix the cake mix, water, eggs, and vegetable oil as directed on the package, and pour batter into prepared cake pans.
- Bake the layers in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool in pan at least 20 minutes or until completely cool.
- When the cake is completely cool, run a paring knife between the cake and the edge of the pan. Hold the cake pan on its side and gently tap the sides of the pan against the counter to loosen it. Cover the cake pan with a plate or cooling rack, and invert it to tip the cake out of the pan and onto the plate.
- To fill and decorate, lay a cake layer onto an oven-safe plate, and spread half the lemon filling over the bottom layer. Place a second layer gently on the lemon filling, and spread the rest of the filling on the top of the second layer. Top with third layer.
- Beat the egg whites in a bowl until they form stiff peaks, then gradually add the sugar and continue to beat until the mixture forms a fluffy, shiny meringue. Spread the meringue all over the cake like a frosting, spreading it into decorative peaks and swirls. Place the decorated cake back into the hot oven, and bake until the peaks and swirls of meringue are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Refrigerate 4 hours to overnight, then serve cold.

LEMON CHEESE CAKE PIE
This needs to chill for about two hours. :) This to me is more of a Lemon cream pie. Its really creamy and light unlike a cheese cake that is more dense. This is great if you want something really fast to put together.
