The family cookbook contains recipes, my Gramps & Granny used often and is the type of food I grew up on. Good ole Southern food like my Gramps dumplings, to Grannies pecan pie.
This is a versatile filling and it’s good for Cream Pie. I’m writing the recipe like my Granny wrote, it’s fun to see her writing. Photo is included at the bottom.
Vanilla Cream Filling
Mix 1/4 sifted flour
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 TSP salt
Add slowly and blend well. 1 1/2 cups milk
Beat 3 eggs hocks and mix in
Cook until it thickens, about 5 minutes, stirring all the time
When done add 2 TBS butter & 1/2 TSP Vanilla
This recipe was written on a notepad from where my BFF worked at the time. I must have been 25.
Enjoy!
