Essenhaus Butterscotch Pie
- 2 (9-inch) baked pie shell
- 3 Tbsp. butter
- 3 c. brown sugar
- 10 Tbsp. cream
- 2 Tbsp. cornstarch
- 4 Tbsp. flour
- 3 eggs, beaten
- 4 c. milk
- speck of salt
- 1 Tbsp. vanilla
- In large saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and cream. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch and the flour.
- Add to the beaten eggs and blend.
- Then stir in the milk.
- Gradually add the egg mixture to the hot sugar mixture and continue cooking until mixture thickens and bubbles up in the center.
- Do not use a whisk for stirring until the very end of the cooking time, for you don't want a lot of bubbles to form.
- Add the salt and vanilla and allow mixture to stand 20 minutes without stirring.
- Pour into the pie shells and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
- Top with sweetened whipped cream.
- Yields 2 pies, approximately 16 servings.
