Who's Your Daddy?

Okay, that's not the title, but I can't help thinking about it when I hear the name of this pie.  Or that wonderful movie with Gene Hackman...one of the best sports movies ever.


HOOSIER SUGAR CREAM PIE

Ingredients:

2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons granulated sugar (for sprinkling)
1/2 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 - 2 tablespoons of butter, for dotting inside of pie crust
1 (9 in.) pie crust, unbaked
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  In medium bowl, combine heavy cream, flour, brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, milk, and vanilla.

Dot inside of pie crust with butter.  Pour filling into crust.  Combine cinnamon and remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar and sprinkle on top.  Bake pie until set and center is firm to the touch, about one hour.  Cool on wire rack.

Cook's notes:  This was a little runny and probably needed a little more cooking.  Watch carefully.  But this was really good and sinfully decadent...but what do you expect with 2 cups of heavy cream.  Yum.
