Butter Pie

1 quart of milk or cream. 8 ounces of fresh butter. 1 pound of white sugar. 4 ounces of flour.

Boil the milk with the butter in it. Mix the flour and sugar together dry, stir them into the boiling milk and take the mixture from the fire as soon as it begins to thicken. Bake like a custard in a crust.
