As requested

Here is the Apple Cream Pie recipe I made and posted about awhile back. I know you are all dying to try it! Its delicious!


1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup butter
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2-3 tart apples - peeled, cored
   and sliced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (15 ounce) package pastry
   for double-crust pie
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon milk
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon butter, softened

Directions
1 In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine 1/2 cup
   sugar, 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup cream, and 1/4 cup butter. Heat
   until butter is melted, stirring occasionally. In a small
   bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, 2 tablespoons milk, and
   vanilla; stir into saucepan. Cook until thickened, stirring
   constantly. Remove from heat, and set aside to cool slightly.
2 Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a
   medium bowl, combine the apples, flour, and cinnamon. Mix well.
3 Line a 9 inch pie pan with pie dough. Pour thickened
   filling mixture into pastry-lined pie pan. Arrange apple
   mixture evenly over filling. Top with second crust, seal and
   flute the edges. Cut slits in top crust.
4 Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until crust is golden
   brown and apples are tender. Cool for at least 30 minutes.
5 In small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, 1
   tablespoon milk, 1/4 teaspoon vanilla, and 1 tablespoon softened
   butter. Blend until smooth; pour evenly over warm pie.
   Refrigerate for AT LEAST 1 1/2 hours before serving (longer is better).


ENJOY!
