Butterscotch Cream Pie

Picky-Picky hubby has declared this pie his all fourth dimension favorite. I similar it because of the sugariness as well as flaky crust, the truthful butterscotch flavour as well as the stabilized whipped cream topping (I gauge it is my favorite too).


BLUE RIBBON SWEET AND FLAKY PIE CRUST  (three 10" crusts)

4 cups all role flour
1 3/4 cups butter flavored Crisco
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg  lightly beaten
1/2 loving cup mutual frigidness water

Cut the butter flavored Crisco into the flour (I direct maintain never made this alongside butter, as well as thence I can't comment on that). When the Crisco is nearly the size of a modest pea, add together the residue of the ingredients as well as mix alongside your hands until it comes together inwards a ball. Cover as well as allow sit down on the counter for nearly xv minutes earlier y'all curl it out.

Roll i tertiary of the pie dough out as well as gibe it into a 9" pie plate. Cut off excess and crimp the plough over edge. Prick the bottom of the pie dough alongside a fork (see note). Bake inwards pre-heated 425°F oven for 15-18 minutes or until golden.  Remove from oven as well as allow cool.

BUTTERSCOTCH FILLING  (fills one 10" pie)

1 1/2 cups brownish saccharide (I exercise black brown)
1/4 loving cup + 1½ teaspoons cornstarch
5 egg YOLKS only
3/4 teaspoon salt
3 cups milk (I exercise 2%)
3 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract


In a saucepan that has a heavy bottom, mix the brownish saccharide as well as cornstarch FIRST. Next add together the egg yolks, salt, as well as milk.  Whisk until polish as well as run a spatula or as well as thence the edges of the pan to brand certain y'all instruct everything out of the corners.

Cook, stirring constantly with a whisk, until the mixture is thick as well as bubbly (once it starts to thicken, it volition thicken quickly). When it's dainty as well as thick, take from oestrus as well as add together butter and vanilla as well as mix well.

This adjacent measuring isn't absolutely necessary, but it volition guarantee y'all a silky polish filling: Just earlier y'all pour it into the crust, set it through a strainer.

Pour filling into baked pie shell as well as house plastic roll straight on the surface of the hot pudding.  Chill for several hours or overnight earlier cutting.


STABILIZED WHIPPED CREAM TOPPING

1 cups heavy whipping cream
1/4 loving cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin powder
4 teaspoons mutual frigidness water

In a modest cup, mix the unflavored gelatin pulverization as well as mutual frigidness H2O until dissolved. Let this sit down on the counter until it turns fairly solid.  After it turns fairly enterprise (takes a couple minutes) reheat the mixture until it turns dorsum to a liquid. I produce this inwards my microwave as well as it takes two or 3 seconds ONLY...don't allow it instruct hot!!  Set it aside to cool off a little, y'all don't desire it hot, but don't allow it cool as well as thence much that it gets thick again.

Next Whip the heavy whipping cream, powdered saccharide as well as vanilla until y'all instruct rattling soft peaks. With the mixer withal running, dribble inwards the softened gelatin as well as operate on whipping until y'all instruct stiff peaks (this happens pretty quickly). 

Spread on plough over of the pie. I plough over mine alongside toasted sliced almonds.

NOTE: Make certain y'all exercise a fork to poke holes inwards the bottom of the crust earlier y'all bake it, this is called "docking" as well as it volition deal your crust bake flat. I normally simply press the tines of the fork through the raw crust nearly an inch apart all over the pie bottom.

NOTE: I've ever made this pie crust alongside butter flavored Crisco. I direct maintain no see how it would plough out using butter.
