Steps:
- Prepare and bake your pie crust according to recipe or package instructions.
- Remove from oven, allow to cool to room temperature while you prepare the filling.
- Whisk eggs together with sugar until fluffy and pale yellow. Add cornstarch and salt, whisk until incorporated and smooth. Set aside.
- In a small saucepan, bring milk and cream just to the start of a boil. Remove from heat, add tea bags, steep for 15 minutes. Remove tea bags, squeezing out excess liquid back into the pot. Bring cream up JUST to a boil once again.
- Measure about 1/4 cup of the hot cream mixture, and stream slowly into egg mixture while whisking. Continue streaming liquid and whisking until it is completely incorporated, and mixture is smooth. Repeat with another 1/4 cup of hot cream.
- Remove saucepan from heat, pour remaining egg mixture into cream mixture, whisking constantly. Once fully incorporated and smooth, return to heat. Turn heat to medium-low. Continue whisking mixture constantly, cooking until mixture is very thick. Remove from heat, stir in butter until melted and smooth. Cool to room temperature.
- Spoon filling into prepared crust, cover with plastic wrap. Chill until set, about 3 hours. To serve, top with whipped cream.

Steps:
- Heat the double cream to a simmer. Turn off heat and add your choice of tea. Steep until desired taste is achieved (about 30 minutes for us) and remove tea. Let cool completely.
- Add sugar and whip cream until stiff peaks appear.
- Place whipped cream into a piping bag and set aside.
- To make the tea cup and saucer, shape the foil into a cup.
- Cut a long rectangle of puff pastry and wrap around the bottom side of the foil cup. Cut, fold, and press pastry until it covers the entire bottom of the foil, forming a full cup.
- Cut a second small strip of puff pastry to create the cup's handle. Make two slits in the side of the pastry cup and shove the ends of the pastry handle into the slits.
- To make the saucer, simply cut out a circle of pastry.
- Bake the cup and saucer at 400°F (200°C) until golden brown.
- Cut saucer in half and place cup on top. Pipe whipped cream into tea cup.

CARAMEL-EARL GREY CUSTARD PIE IN GINGERSNAP CRUMB CRUST
This pie was inspired by my friend Erin Clarkson, a fellow baker who asserts that "if it can be infused, it should be infused with Earl Grey." I took that to heart to create this caramel-spiked pie, infusing the milk and cream with plenty of tea before whisking them into a classic custard filling. And because I adore the combination of chai tea and caramel, there's a variation for that version.

Steps:
- In medium saucepan, bring the milk and cream to a simmer over medium heat. Remove from the heat, add the tea, and cover the pan. Let steep for 15 to 20 minutes, then strain the liquid into a medium bowl (or just remove the tea bags, if using, and pour into the bowl).
- Preheat the oven to 350°F / 175°C with a rack in the center (preferably with a Baking Steel or stone on it).
- In a medium bowl, stir the brown sugar and cornstarch together well to combine. Add this mixture to the milk mixture, along with the eggs, and whisk well to combine. Add the vanilla and salt and whisk until well incorporated.
- Place the parbaked crust on a parchment-lined baking sheet and pour the custard into it. Transfer to the oven and bake until the crust is deeply golden brown and the custard is set around the outside but still slightly jiggly in the center, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or up to 24 hours).
- Pour some or all of the caramel glaze over the top of the pie and spread into an even layer over the surface. A thin layer will set firmer and a thicker layer will be gooier-or you can drizzle it over slices when serving. Refrigerate the pie for at least 1 hour, or until ready to slice and serve.
- Do Ahead: The pie can be made up to 24 hours ahead and refrigerated until ready to serve.
- Variation
- Caramel-Chai Custard Pie in Shortbread Crumb Crust: Replace the Earl Grey tea with an equal amount of chai. Make the crumb crust with shortbread or vanilla cookie crumbs.
Tips:
- Use good quality Earl Grey tea. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your pie.
- Make sure your pie crust is well chilled before baking. This will help it to keep its shape in the oven.
- Don't overcook the pie filling. It should be thick and bubbly, but not too stiff.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help it to set and slice cleanly.
- Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. This will make it even more delicious!
Conclusion:
Earl Grey cream pie is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
