Episode 26: How to Make Brown Sugar Pie

Pour half a bag of brown sugar into a pot.

Add half a cup of flour and three tablespoons of cornstarch to the pot and mix well to avoid lumps.

Slowly pour in four cups of milk while mixing to ensure no lumps remain.

Add five egg yolks to the mixture and mix well, saving the egg whites for meringue later.

Once the mixture starts to bubble, add half a teaspoon of vanilla.

When the mixture thickens and becomes hard to stir, prepare to transfer it into pre-baked pie shells.

Transfer the thickened mixture into the pre-baked pie shells and let it cool.

For the meringue, beat the egg whites until fluffy, then gradually add sugar, cream of tartar, and vanilla flavoring.

Add a spoonful of marshmallow cream to the meringue mixture to help it hold together better.

Spread the meringue over the cooled pie filling and bake until golden.

Let the pies cool in the fridge before serving.
