Ingredients
  

Pie Crust
  • 1 package pre-made pie crust or homemade crust
Filling
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg for garnish

Method
 

Prepare the Pie Crust
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pre-made pie crust in the pie pan and crimp the edges.
  2. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent bubbling.
  3. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
Make the Filling
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, cornstarch, and salt.
  2. In a saucepan, combine the milk and heavy cream over medium heat. Gradually whisk in the sugar mixture until smooth.
  3. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until well combined.
Assemble and Bake
  1. Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust.
  2. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden.
  3. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before refrigerating for at least 2 hours.
Serve
  1. Before serving, sprinkle the top with ground nutmeg for garnish.
  2. Slice and enjoy your Christmas Sugar Cream Pie!
