Nannie's Butterscotch Pies

Childhood favorite of mine. My grandmother would make whole pies during the holidays just for me to take home.

Ingredients

2 cups brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
3 1/2 cups sweet milk
9 tablespoons flour
6 eggs (2 for filling; 4 whites on top)
butter size of egg for each pie
vanilla flavoring

Mix brown & white sugar and flour together. Beat eggs until lemon colored. Gradually mix in dry mix . Add milk and butter cut in small pieces. Cook in double boiler until thick enough to stand up. Remove from fire and add flavoring. Pour in cooked pie shell. Use 4 egg whites for meringue.
