Butterscotch Pie
Ingredients:
1 pre-baked pie crust
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups whole milk
4 large egg yolks, beaten
2 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
Whipped cream, for topping
Preparation:
In a medium saucepan, whisk together brown sugar, flour, and salt. Gradually add milk, whisking until smooth.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens and starts to boil. Remove from heat.
Slowly whisk about 1/2 cup of the hot mixture into the beaten egg yolks to temper them. Then, gradually add the egg mixture back into the saucepan, whisking constantly.
Return to heat and cook for 2-3 more minutes, stirring until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in butter and vanilla extract.
Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust. Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Top with whipped cream before serving. Enjoy!
