2 c. sweet milk
Nutmeg flavoring
4 eggs
Plain flour

Beat eggs well, add sugar and mix thoroughly. Then add single handful of plain flour. Add milk and nutmeg and stir until mixed well. Then pour into 2 unbaked pie shells. Chip up butter on top of this filling and bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Top with Caramel Icing.

CARAMEL ICING:

2 tbsp. scorched sugar
1 c. sweet milk
3/4 c. water

Brown sugar in skillet until caramel-colored. Add other ingredients and boil until thick and beat well. (This mixture will be easier to handle if milk and water are hot when added to the caramelized sugar.)
