This recipe was the grand prize winner a few years ago in a recipe contest held by an area newspaper. I love sugar cream pie, but didn't have an easy recipe until I found this one. I used a store bought pie shell, and ended up with more filling than the shell would hold so we ate the leftover filling like pudding. Ingredients:
3 cups half-and-half |
1 1/2 cups sugar |
4 tablespoons melted butter |
1/3 teaspoon salt |
6 tablespoons flour |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 baked 9 inch pie shell |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine sugar, flour and salt.
2. Gradually stir in the half and half, then the melted butter.
3. Place bowl in microwave.
4. Cook mixture on high power, stopping to stir every 1 minute and 30 seconds, for a total of ten minutes cooking time.
5. Note: It is very important to stop and stir the mixture.
6. Finally, add vanilla and microwave for an additional 30 seconds or until mixture is bubbly.
7. Pour filling into a 9- inch pie shell.
8. Sprinkle with cinnamon, if desired.
9. Allow pie to cool completely before cutting.
