                        Chocolate Crumb Shell:
   1 1/2  c             Fine chocolate wafer crumbs
   2      tb            Sugar
     1/3  c             Butter -- melted

Chocolate Crumb Shell:

Mix together fine chocolate wafer crumbs, sugar, and melted butter.
Press over bottom and up sides of lightly greased 9" pie pan (1-1/2"
deep). Bake in 350°F oven for 5 to 7 minutes. Cool before filling.

Pie:

Stir together 2 tb sugar, gelatin, salt, and nutmeg in 2 qt saucepan.
Beat egg yolks. Add milk and combine with dry mixture. Cook over
moderately low heat, stirring constantly, just until mixture
thickens. Do not allow to boil. Remove from heat, cool, and stir in
Kahlua. Chill a few minutes. When mixture begins to thicken, beat egg
whites to fine foam. Gradually beat in remaining 4 tb sugar, making a
meringue. With same beater, beat cream stiff. Fold cream into gelatin
mixture, then meringue. If necessary, chill a few minutes until
mixture mounds on a spoon. Then turn into cooked crust, and chill 4
to 5 hours or overnight. At serving time, decorate with additional
whipped cream and candied fruit, if desired.

Yield: 1 Pie (9")
