• 12 graham crackers
• ½ cup butter, melted
• ¼ cup white sugar
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 cups milk
• ½ cup sugar
• 3 eggs, separated
• ½ cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Crush graham crackers and mix with ¼ cup white sugar and ¼ cup brown sugar. Press into 8- or 9-inch pie pan, reserving some crumbs for the top of the pie.

In top of a double boiler, combine cornstarch, milk, ½ cup sugar and 3 egg yolks. Cook over low to medium heat until mixture coats the back of a spoon. Pour custard into pie pan. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

In mixer, beat egg whites, sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Spread over top of pie, and sprinkle with reserved crumbs. Bake at 300 degrees for 30 minutes or until tips of meringues begin to brown.
