[radiculousraneem]

would ordinary milk be the same as evaporated?

[jakatak69]

@radiculousraneem no. Evaporated milk is thicker. you can buy a can of it at the store on the baking aisle.

I made this today for my boyfriend's birthday and when I pulled it out of the oven, I could see some swishing under the top brown layer and thought I messed it up. But I let it set for a while and it solidified. But there's like two layers, the top one looks like your pie and the bottom looks a little liquidy though. Still good!

[jakatak69]

@zeldafreak701 it should be cooked at 350 for one hour. if it still looks liquidy then put back in for about 10 more minutes. It should be more custard inside. it will thicken when cool.

Tastes just like Pecan pie but without nuts.

I LOVE THE CESHES PEA

[KouklaEleni]

just a little tip, you should bake the pie shells for a few minutes before putting the mixture in it (and then bake it all together)

[KouklaEleni]

this type of pie is really popular in quebec (canada)...we call it sugar pie
