Ingredients:

Serving

1 large graham cracker crust
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/8 tsp salt
2 1/4 cups whole milk
4 large egg yolks
2 tbsp unsalted butter , cut into 1/2 inch pieces
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
fresh whipped cream
ground nutmeg (optional)

Directions:

Prebake crust according to package directions; let cool.
In a saucepan, mix sugar, cornstarch, and salt; whisk in milk and egg yolks.
Place over medium heat and cook, whisking nonstop, until mixture starts to thicken and comes to a low boil, 5-7 minutes.
Continue to whisk and heat until quite thick, about 1 1/2 minutes.
Remove from heat and whisk in butter, one piece at a time, and the vanilla.
Immediately pour filling into cooled pie shell; set aside on a wire rack; gently press a piece of plastic wrap directly against the filling, leaving no gaps or air pockets, to prevent a skin from forming.
Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Shortly before serving, smooth the whipped cream generously over the pie; dust with nutmeg, if desired, and serve.
