Butterscotch Meringue Pie image

This recipe has been in my family as far as I know since 1900. The year my Grandmother was married. All the ingredients back then had no chemicals mixed in. BUT, it is still my #1 favorite. Just don't burn the custard in the process. YUK.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling next time.

The meringue topping on this pie was a bit too soft for my liking, but the filling was delicious. I would recommend baking the pie for a few minutes longer next time.

I'm not a huge fan of butterscotch, but I decided to give this pie a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The filling is rich and creamy, and the meringue topping is perfectly browned. I will definitely be making this pie again.
