Quebec Sugar Pie

I found this recipe on the op-ed page of the Christian Science Monitor newspaper decades ago, in a weekly feature called, I think, "dispatch from the farm." The piece said something like "You would have to be a lumberjack to eat this." I make it rarely, only on days when I have been expending a lot of energy digging out of monster snowstorms. It has a great praline-like flavor, sort of like pecan pie without any redeeming social value except lots of energy.

• pie crust for single-crust pie
• 1 lb brown sugar
• 1/3 C milk
• 1 Tbsp melted butter
• 1 Tbsp flour
• 1/2 t vanilla

Put your pie crust in a nine inch pie plate

Mix all the remaining ingredients together and pour mixture into the crust.

Bake at 350 degrees 30 minutes or until crust is brown.
