Lemon Meringue Pie image

Lemon Meringue is my sisters favorite pie and because it's her birthday today, I have made pie! This little creation is so yummy. The lemon is tart but sweet and the combination makes me salivate just thinking about cutting into this bugger and eating it! Of course I won't since I have to go deliver it to my sister! Happy...

I'm not a huge fan of lemon meringue pie, but this recipe changed my mind. The filling was tart and flavorful, and the meringue was light and fluffy. I'll definitely be making this again.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think next time I'll use less sugar in the filling. The meringue was perfect though!

I've made this lemon meringue pie several times now and it's always a hit. The filling is so creamy and flavorful, and the meringue is the perfect topping. It's a bit time-consuming to make, but it's definitely worth the effort.
