Old Fashioned Butterscotch Pie:

This old fashioned pie is a favorite, it takes some patience thickening with lots of stirring, but, is so worth it 

Ingredients:

1/2 Cup Unsalted Butter

1-1/2 Cups Packed Brown Sugar

4 Cups Water

1/2 Cup Flour

1 Cup Sugar

1/2 Tsp. Salt

2 Cups Milk

2 Egg Yolks, Beaten

1 Tsp. Vanilla Extract

2-9 in. Pie Crusts, Baked

Directions:

In a large saucepan, combine butter and brown sugar. Cook over medium heat; until lightly golden. Add the water; cook for 10 minutes; stirring often.

In a medium bowl, mix flour, sugar and salt. 

In another saucepan, heat milk just until warm/ hot, not boiling. Swiftly, whisk the egg yolks into the warm milk. Now, mix the warm milk into the flour mixture and add this to the brown sugar/butter mixture. Stirring constantly over medium heat. Cook until thickened, anywhere from 20 - 35 minutes. 

Once thick enough, remove from burner and stir in the vanilla. Pour into prepared pie crusts.
