The thing about us foodies is that we tend to not follow recipes to the T. We say we get inspired; we admit to finding a recipe intriguing and delicious, then we adapt it. Who knows, we might truly love the original version but, because this is culinary art, we feel the need to give it our own special twist. So we alter one or two of the ingredients, use a new cooking or baking method, tweak it here and there… and then we have a new masterpiece.

Rob from he Curious Blogquat let his taste buds be his guide. He was a fan of Margie Connor’s Sugar Cream Pie, an adaptation of Grandma Meek’s Pie, which included the heavy cream but not the half-and-half, but then he created his own version, what he calls a Dulce de Leche Cream Pie.

All three pies are addicting, but the last one is a bit different from the rest; why’s that? He combined three different sugars with the cream to create dulce de leche and added in some milk to give it a perfect pie texture. If you like creamy desserts, you’ll love this!
