In the US, the popular treat Rice Krispie Treats is used as a pie crust, with meringue made fluffy using yogurt and marshmallow milk.
The origin of this recipe
Everyone loves lemon pie, so I decided to change things up a bit by pouring lemon custard into a tart shell made from rice cereal. I wanted to use marshmallows for the topping, so I melted them to create a meringue-like texture and fluffiness.

Steps

  1. 1

    In a saucepan, combine granulated sugar and cornstarch, then add water and lemon juice. Heat over medium heat.

    Stir constantly from the bottom to prevent lumps. Once thickened and clear, remove from heat.

  5. 5

    In a bowl, add egg yolks and about 1 cup of the mixture from step 4, mixing well. This step prevents the yolks from scrambling.

  6. 6

    Return the mixture from step 5 to the saucepan and heat on low for about 30 seconds, then remove from heat immediately. Stir in butter.

    In step 2, the rice crust appears orange because I added 1 teaspoon of store-bought orange jelly powder for flavor. You can use lemon too!
