Ricotta Pie (Old Italian Recipe)

Submitted by: Misty 
This is an old Italian recipe for a pie with a sweet crust--just like from the old country. My in-laws are Italian and they say that this is the best pie. It is always requested for Christmas. Mini chocolate bits and lemon rind can be mixed into the batter.

Lemon extract is added to the cooked and creamy vinegar custard just before it 's poured into the waiting crust, adding a wonderful taste treat to this old-fashioned pie. Then egg whites are whipped into a meringue that is piled on top of the filling before the pie is baked.
