SODA CRACKER TORTE



Soda Cracker Torte image

This is basically a meringue. You can put fruit on it, or do just about anything else you would do with meringues. I like it for two reasons: It's got an interesting, nutty-crunchy taste and texture, and I love hearing people say after they taste it, "Crackers? You're kidding!"

SODA CRACKER PIE



Soda Cracker Pie image

My grandmother was a wonderful cook. Even in her "town" house (as opposed to her farm house) she had two kitchens. One on the main floor for day to day cooking, and another in the basement for canning and preserving. After her death, my mother and I were cleaning out the cupboards in the basement kitchen. We found recipe box after recipe box. When my mom found this recipe, she almost did a cartwheel! I looked at the recipe and thought, "ok, this doesn't really sound all that good...." Mom told me, "wait til you try it!!" It's now one of my favorite desserts. The crust is dense and somewhat salty, which perfectly balances the creamy sweetness of the topping.

WALNUT TORTE AKA SODA CRACKER PIE RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Walnut Torte aka Soda Cracker Pie Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by á-25138

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 egg whites
3/4 cup sugar plus extra for whipped cream
1 teaspoon vanilla plus 1 teaspoon for whipped cream
1 tablespoon coconut oil, at room temperature (optional)
16 saltine crackers
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup walnuts (or pecans), chopped
1/2 shredded coconut, optional
1 pint whipping cream

Steps:

  • Grease an 8″ spring-form pan with butter. Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees F. In a medium mixing bowl, add 3 egg whites and beat until fluffy, approximately 30 seconds. Gradually add sugar and continue to beat until another minute. Batter will resemble runny pancake batter. Add vanilla and coconut oil, beating until well incorporated. In a sandwich size plastic bag, add saltines and crumble with your hands or the back of a wooden spoon until crackers are about nickel sized pieces (does not have to be exact, just don't smash into crumbs). Add the baking powder to the saltines and mix in with your hand. Add walnuts and saltines to batter and fold in with a large spoon or spatula. Pour batter into spring-form pan and spread to edges. Bake in 375F oven for 20 minutes or until edges appear golden. Remove from oven and cool 5 minutes on baking rack. After 5 minutes, release sides of pan and cool completely. Meanwhile, place shredded coconut on a baking sheet and return to 375F degree oven. Toast coconut approximately 5-7 minutes, watching not to burn. Remove from oven and let cool completely while finishing torte. Whip cream to desired stiffness, adding sugar to taste and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Remove cooled torte from pan onto plate, cover with whipped cream and toasted coconut. If time allows, chill at least one hour before serving to let whipped cream soften the top of the torte a bit. Note, you may serve immediately if necessary, but letting the whip cream sit on the torte for a bit makes it even more delectable. Delicious 2 or even 3 days later! - See more at: http://gooddinnermom.com/page/2/#sthash.rU3lsArU.dpuf

SODA CRACKER PIE

This pie is delicious, with or without a filling. I make it with pecans and serve it with whipped topping and one shake of nutmeg on top. Or I make it without pecans and fill with fruit filling such as lemon filling. I use soda crackers, saltines, graham crackers or buttery round crackers, finely crushed
