Mama Cox's Buttermilk Pie

Over the Easter weekend I pulled out a frozen buttermilk pie that I had baked at Christmas and then frozen "for later". Well...noone touched it! So I kept two pieces and gave the rest to Cari and Kevin....telling them to take a piece to Dillan. Our two pieces were eaten last night. Dillan came by this morning on his way to school and wanted pie for breakfast...for some reason he hadn't gotten his pie from Cari (????). So I promised him a pie for dessert tonight. This is my grandmother's recipe and it is delicious and super easy. I doubled the recipe and it gave me 3 pies. I usually make my own crust, but because of time and convenience I used a Marie Callender's frozen crust today! I'll give the recipe for a single pie. Like I said, I doubled the recipe and made three pies. They freeze well. Just let them cool and wrap them in foil. Stick them in your freezer and enjoy later. I always think, "If you're gonna make one, you might as well make 2 or 3!"

Cream 1 stick of (real) softened butter with 2 cups of sugar.

Add 3 heaping tablespoons of flour and continue to mix.

Beat in 3 eggs (mine came from the Evanson's. Aren't they beautiful?).

Add two teaspoons of vanilla. I've used all my Mexican vanilla, which I love!

Add 1 cup of buttermilk and mix well.

Pour into an unbaked 9 inch pie shell and bake at 350 degrees for 50 - 60 minutes.

Enjoy your pie..........It is a real treat!
