Decadent 50-year favorite dessert with homemade butterscotch filling and luscious meringue topping. Enjoy warm for a rich treat.
Ingredients:
  • 2 cups milk
  • 0.33333334326744 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 3 egg yolks
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 6 egg whites
  • 0.25 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
  • 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly brush the pie crust with egg white to seal it. Bake for 10 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Lower the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) after removing the pie.
  • Combine flour, brown sugar, and salt in a small bowl; set aside. In a double boiler over medium heat, scald the milk while whisking. Gradually whisk in the flour mixture. Stir constantly until thickened; then remove from heat.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the egg yolks with 1/3 of the milk mixture, whisking constantly to temper the yolks. Transfer the yolk mixture back to the pan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla. Pour the mixture into the baked pie crust.
  • Whip egg whites, cream of tartar, and confectioners' sugar in a spacious glass or metal bowl until stiff peaks form. Spread the fluffy meringue evenly over the entire pie.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) until meringue is golden brown in spots, about 10-15 minutes.
