CREAM PIE The use of a mixture of corn- starch and flour gives a better texture to the filling than when cornstarch is used alone. Baked pie shells or crumb crusts are required for these pies. Filling: 2 cups milk 2 tbsp, flour 3 tbsp. cornstarch z cup sugar 1 pkg. dream whip or .2 pint of cream whipped stiff tsp. salt 2 egg yolks 2 tbsp. butter tsp. vanilla Heat 11 cups milk in top of a double boiler. Mix flour, cornstarch, sugar and salt; add z cup milk; stir until smooth; stir into hot milk; cook until thick; stirring constantly; cover and Iet cook 10 minutes. Beat egg yolks and into them stir a small quantity of the hot mix- ture, stir until the mixture thic:<ens. Cook two minutes. Remove from heat, add butter and vanilla; cool, stirring oc- casionally. When filling is cool fold in half the whipped cream or dream whip which has been whipped stiff. Pour into the baked pie shell and spread with remaining whipped cream or dream whip. Variations: Banana --Stir 2-3 sliced ba- nanas alternately with the fill- ing. Butterscotch --Substitute 2/3 cup brown sugar for z cup gran- ulated sugar; increase butter to 3 tbsp. Chocolate --Increase the su- gar to 2/3 cup; melt 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate in scalded milk; especially good in ginger snap crust. Coconut --Add i cup moist, shredded coconut to warm fill- ing.
