Hello Memaw,
Well, don't write such long letters...
I couldn't say why you're having problems, but try the old-fashioned sugar
cream pie recipes below.
Phaed
Old - Time Sugar Cream Pie
Ingredients :
1 2/3 c. sugar
1/2 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. boiling water
1 c. light cream
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
9" pie shell
Preparation :
Combine sugar, flour and salt. Stir in boiling water. Add light
cream, nutmeg and vanilla. Pour in pie shell. Bake 10 minutes at
450 degrees. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake an additional 40
minutes.
----------------------------------
Old Fashioned Sugar Cream Pie
Ingredients :
2 c. cream (or 1 cup cream and 1 cup half and half)
1/2 tsp. salt
Nutmeg to taste
1 1/3 c. granulated sugar
2 tsp. vanilla
1 prepared, unbaked, pie crust
Preparation :
Mix sugar, flour and salt together in a saucepan, add cream and
vanilla and cook until it starts to thicken. Butter the bottom of
the unbaked pie crust and pour in the batter. Sprinkle with nutmeg
if desired. Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes, reduce heat to 350
degrees and bake another 25 minutes or until it is thick. Cool and
serve.
----------------------------------
Old - Fashioned Sugar Cream Pie
Ingredients :
3/4 c. sugar, granulated*
3 tbsp. flour, rounded or heaping**
2 c. milk or half & half
Dash of salt
Preparation :
Mix ingredients in unbaked pie shell, using fingertips. Dot with
butter and sprinkle with nutmeg. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 to 60
minutes. Pie will thicken as it cools. *You may use half brown
sugar and half granulated sugar, if you wish. **Back in Grandma's
day, ingredients were not measured precisely. Grandma could tell by
"feel" if there was enough flour. Therefore, you may need to
increase or decrease the amount of flour, judging by the consistency
of the finished product. It should not be soupy! I have not had an
oven for awhile and therefore could not verify the exact
measurement. Play with it and then be sure to write down the amount
of flour you used!
----------------------------------
Old Faithful Sugar Cream Pie
Ingredients :
1 c. sugar
1/4 c. plus 1 1/2 tsp. all-purpose flour
1 c. whipping cream
1/2 c. light cream
3/4 tsp. vanilla
Ground nutmeg
Preparation :
In a mixer bowl, stir together the sugar and the flour. Add the
whipping cream, light cream, vanilla, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Beat
with mixer about 6 minutes, or until fluffy and thickened. Cover
and let stand for 1 hour in the refrigerator. Pour filling into
unbaked shell. Sprinkle with nutmeg. Bake at 425 degrees for 10
minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees and bake for about
20 minutes more, or until filling doesn't jiggle or a knife inserted
near the center comes out clean. Cool; store, covered, in the
refrigerator. Makes 1 pie. Note: Because of the shallow, rich
filling in this pie, you can crimp your pie shell lower than you
would a regular pie, so the crust is even with the top of the pie
plate.

Subject: frozen cookie mix
Dear Uncle Phaedrus
My friend has a cookie mix which she keeps frozen for fresh
cookies, but she will not share it. It makes lovely crisp
cookies. She makes chocolate ones that she says makes just
as great a chocolate drink as cookies. She also makes
chocolate chip cookies. Any ideas?
Marian
Hello Marian,
Not much help here. There are lots of cookie recipes that state that the dough can be frozen and then used as needed, but I'm not finding basic cookie dough mixes
that can be frozen.
This page might interest you, though. It has dozens of make-ahead mixes, including a basic cookie mix:

Hello Patricia,
It does sound familiar. The recipe was printed in a magazine, I believe.
However, I do not have it and could not locate it on the Internet. The
closest thing that I could find is the first recipe below. You could also
use the second recipe, but simply use the graham cracker crust in muffin
tins instead of the tart shells. Careful with the amounts, though.
Phaed
Key Lime Tarts
Divide 2 cups of graham cracker crumb mixture among muffin
pan/tin. I use pre-packaged graham cracker crumbs to make it easier.
Cheesecake filling:
1 lb cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup sugar
2 whole eggs and 1 extra egg yolk
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 Tbsp flour
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp lemon extract
pinch salt
Beat cheese until soft and creamy; add sugar, flour, salt,
and one egg at a time. Beat in the extra egg yolk, cream,
lemon, and vanilla until very smooth. Pour into muffin tin.
Bake in a preheated 475-degree oven for 10 minutes. Reduce
heat to 325 degrees and bake for about 1/2 hour longer.
Turn off the heat, open door, and let cool in oven for 15
minutes.
Topping:
3/4 cup sugar
3 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 c water
2 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp key lime juice
2-3 drops green food coloring
Mix sugar, cornstarch, and salt together in a saucepan.
Gradually stir in water and cook until mixture thickens
and comes to a boil, stirring constantly.
Boil 1 minute and remove from heat.
Stir in butter, key lime juice, and food coloring, and
mix well. Allow to cool slightly. Spoon over top of
mini-cheesecakes while still in muffin tins. Cool another
2-3 hours or even better, overnight, before trying to
remove from tins. Top with a spritz of fresh whipped
cream in the center.
---------------------------------------------------
Key Lime Tarts
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups Key Lime juice
2 1/4 cups sugar
1 cup butter
6 egg yolks
9 eggs
90 small tart shells or 1, 9" pie crust, baked and cooled
Preparation
Place first three ingredients in a sauce pan. Heat gently
over medium heat until sugar is completely dissolved.
Remove from heat but do not cool.
In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks and eggs together.
Slowly whisk in hot mixture. Return mixture to sauce
pan and cook over low heat, stirring until thickened.
Do not allow to boil. Pour mixture into tart shells,
cool to room temperature and then refrigerate until
chilled. You may garnish with a bit or lime zest or
freshly whipped heavy cream.

Hello, When I was a little girl my Mother used to make
banana cake similar to banana bread but she iced it with
an icing she called burnt butter icing. I remember that
she took a stick of butter in a metal pan and melted it
until it turned a dark brown and I think she added powered
sugar but I can't remember anything else. Have you ever
heard of this recipe and if so would you please send it
to me? Thank you very much.
