Marie Callendar's pies are great for people who a) don't bake, and b)
have never had a good scratch pie. This is a lovely cream pie recipe:

@@@@@ Now You're Cooking! Export Format

Cream Pie

desserts

1/3 cup + 2 T. Sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/8 teaspoon Salt
5 large egg yolks; lightly beaten
2 cups milk
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1/2 vanilla bean; about 3 inches long, spli
2 tablespoon Butter
2 teaspoon brandy
1 pie shell; baked

Whisk sugar, cornstarch and salt in medium saucepan. Add yolks, then
immediately but gradually whisk in milk and evaporated milk. Drop in
vanilla bean. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently at first,
then constantly, as mixture starts to thicken and begins to simmer,
about 8 - 10 mins. Once mixture simmers, continue to cook, stirring
constantly, for 1 min. longer. Remove pan from heat; whisk in butter
and brandy. Remove vanilla bean.

Pour filling int shallow pan (another pie pan works well). Put plastic
wrap directly over filling surface to prevent skin from forming; cool
until warm, 20 - 30 mins. Pour warm filling into pie shell and, once
again, place a sheet of plastic wrap directly over filling surface.
Refrigerate until completely chilled, at least 3 hours.

For Chocolate Cream Pie:

Add 2 T. unsweetened cocoa to cornstarch mixture and stir in 4 oz.
good quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate and 1 teaspoon vanilla
extract with butter and brandy.

For Coconut Cream Pie:

Toast 1 1/4 C. coconut 20 - 25 mins. in a 300° oven, stirring
occasionally. Add 1 C. coconut to filling mixture. Sprinkle remaining
coconut over whipped cream topping.

For Banana Cream Pie:

Spoon 1/2 filling into shell, slice 2 medium bananas over filling.
Spoon remaining filling over all.

It is when it's 6:00 a.m. and you're on the road in East Jesus,
Alabama, headed to a Family Obligation, and the very idea of actually
eating a meal beyond cinnamon raisin toast and milk makes your stomach
cramp :-)

Did I mention that I was in East Jesus, Alabama headed to Double
Springs in the Free State of Winston (b/c when Alabama seceded from
the Union, Winston County seceded from the state), which is ostensibly
a dry county? Which means, my only recourse would have been to find a
cousin who had a still, which would not have taxed my cousinly
resources <g>
