Ingredients:
Refrigerated Pie Crust
4 Large Egg Yolks (lightly beaten)
2 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup unpacked light brown sugar
⅓ cup cornstarch, sifted
½ tsp salt
½ cup honey
2 tsp vanilla extract
Procedure:
- Prepare the pie crust in a deep pie pan and set it in the fridge. Do not pre-bake it. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
