YUM YUM YUM!!!!! I chose this recipe specifically because it had sweetened condensed milk in it. I've never made a cream pie with it before, always just used sugar and milk. The texture was fabulous and the taste incredible. It thickened up BEAUTIFULLY, even though I scribbled the directions quickly and couldn't read my own writing and used 2 egg yolks instead of 3. I put it in a graham cracker pie crust and topped it with recipe#79506. It reminded me VERY much of Johnny Ray's pie in Alabama. DH said it needed more banana flavor (he's a yankee, and in the south we only have banana flavor by the addition of the bananas) so next time I might use a combination of vanilla extract and banana extract. I LOVE the taste and texture of the filling, and might also use it for coconut cream pie, or add cocoa for chocolate pie. Thanks so much for posting!

This was such an easy recipe and quite delicious! I cooked mine in the microwave for 6 minutes, stirring after each 3 minute increment. I guess it would be dependent on your microwave though. Mine came out perfect. This will be my go to recipe for cream pie. I definitely will be experimenting with other flavors such as coconut and chocolate cream pie. Yummo!
