Instructions
Ingredients
- 2/3 C brown sugar
- 2 Tbsp corn starch
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 2 C milk
- 2 egg yolks, beaten (keep the egg whites for the meringue)
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 9" baked pie shell
Pie
- In a large sauce pan, combine the brown sugar, cornstarch and salt; gradually add the milk.
- Cook mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture thickens and comes to a boil.
- Boil for 1 minute, remove from heat and add 1/2 of the mixture into the beaten egg yolks stirring constantly.
- Return the egg yolk mixture to the sauce pan and bring to a boil again.
- Remove from heat, stir in butter and vanilla then pour this into the baked pie shell.
- Cool pie.
Meringue (I don't really measure here! :))
- Preheat over to 350F
- 2 egg whites
- 1/4 - 1/2 C white sugar
- Using an electric mixer, beat the egg whites on high until small peaks are formed.
- Slowly add the sugar and continue beating until all the sugar is added and the desired peaks are formed (it usually takes me about 4 minutes or so).
- Using a spatula or spoon, drop dollops of the meringue on the pie making sure to cover the entire surface of the pie to the edge.
- Slide into the preheated oven and let the meringue cook until it browns.
