1 1/2 c milk beaten with 3 egg yolks.

Keep cooking until it thickens again.

Take off the heat and add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pour into a cooked pie crust and bake at 400 just 5 minutes or so until the top is browned. This is normally covered in meringue or whipped cream.

Thanks Kate. I'll give it a try.

This recipe is older than you are. Enjoy!

Made this today and it was amazing. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks!

I looked all over the store and could not find boiling water. I found Dasani, Great Value, Ozarka...all sorts of water
but could not find boiling. Where do you get your at?
Sounds like a great tasting pie though!

Light brown sugar or dark brown sugar?

Either one works. This recipe is from my 1945 Texas cooking cookbook. It didn't specify.

Sounds great
