Instructions for Making Wick’s Sugar Cream Pie Recipe
Following is a detailed description of the method on how to make Wick’s Sugar Cream Pie:
Step 1
The first thing is to prepare the crust. For that, pulse the salt and all-purpose flour together in a food processor. Then add shortening and butter and pulse them all. Make the mixture look coarse and have small chunks of butter.
Step 2
In the same content, add some ice water, about 2-3 tbsp, and pulse again. Turn the contents of the food processor into a smooth and beautiful dough.
Step 3
Transfer the dough onto a plastic sheet, pat it in a disk shape, wrap it in a plastic sheet, and refrigerate for an hour. If you’ve got plenty of time, go ahead and refrigerate for 24 hours. It will be better.
Step 4
Then flour a clean surface on your countertop and put the dough on it. Roll it into a round pie crust shape, about 9-11 inches. Then place it in the pie pan and roll the edges. Use a fork to make the beautiful piercings on the bottom. Let the dough enjoy some time in the refrigerator for half an hour.
Step 5
Preheat the oven with a baking sheet at 425 degrees F. You just got done with the pie crust prep. Now let’s move to filling.
Step 6
Find a beautiful medium-sized bowl and add whipping cream, sugar, flour, and vanilla to the bowl, and use a blender or a whisk to whip them. Transfer this whipped creamy mixture to the pie crust dough.
Step 7
For some decor, add nutmeg and butter to the filling mixture. Then bake for 10 minutes.
Step 8
Bake for a second time, but at 350 degrees F, and until the filling becomes bubbly, and the crust is beautifully golden. It can take anywhere from 50-60 minutes.
Step 9
Cool the yummy sugar pie on a cooling rack. Chill in the refrigerator. Wick’s Sugar Cream Pie is ready. Bon Appetit!
Recipe Tips and Variations
Wick’s Sugar Cream Pie is very versatile. Here are some variations that you can try:
1. Cinnamon Infused Sugar Cream Pie
So you can add cinnamon to your Wick’s sugar cream pie and make it everyone’s favorite. Add a pinch of cinnamon powder to your filling mix. You can also add some cinnamon powder to the crust dough and further boost the flavor.
2. Maple Syrup Sugar Pie
Maple syrup is the best way to sweeten your pies. When added to the simple and classic Wick’s sugar cane pie, it just lifts the flavor. So I sometimes replace half the sugar with a tablespoon of maple syrup. It changes the flavor and makes it new. You can add the amount according to your palate.
