Butterscotch Cream Pie image

This recipe has been a favorite of mine and my family for over 50 years. The meringue topping with the butterscotch filling makes for a very rich dessert; eat it warm. YUM!

Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups milk
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
1 cup brown sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
3 egg yolks
3 tablespoons butter, melted
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
6 egg whites
¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Brush pie crust lightly with egg white to seal. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until light brown and crisp. Remove from oven and reduce temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a small bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar and salt; set aside. In the top of a double boiler over medium heat, scald the milk while stirring with a whisk. Slowly whisk in the flour mixture. Cook, stirring constantly until thickened; remove from heat.
  • Place the egg yolks in a medium bowl. Stir in 1/3 of the milk mixture, whisking constantly, to temper the yolks. Pour the yolk mixture back into the pan. Return to the stove and cook, stirring constantly, until thick. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla. Pour into baked pie crust.
  • In a large glass or metal mixing bowl, beat egg whites, cream of tartar, and confectioners' sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread meringue over pie, covering completely.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 10 to 15 minutes, or until meringue is golden brown in spots.

This pie was a disaster. The crust was tough, the filling was too sweet, and the whole thing was just a mess.

The pie was a little runny. I think I might have overcooked the filling.

I had some trouble getting the crust to roll out. I ended up having to use a lot more flour than the recipe called for.

This pie is delicious, but it's a little too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, and my pie turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a little more salt to the crust.

I made this pie for a party last weekend, and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it, and I even got asked for the recipe. Thanks for sharing!

This butterscotch cream pie is incredible! The filling is creamy and rich, and the butterscotch flavor is perfect. The crust is flaky and buttery, and the whole pie comes together beautifully.
