- In today's video we try and recreate a recipe from Sherri's childhood, the famous Sugar Cream Pie from Indiana! We found a recipe, gathered the ingredients, and then... failed miserably. Ha!
The nice thing about baking fails is that they are still pretty delicious!
Here is the Sugar Cream Pie recipe we used: bakedinaz.com/sugar-cream-pie/

Oh the pressures of Vlogmas! Lol! Your pie sounds similar to buttermilk pie. I make buttermilk pie every Thanksgiving and Christmas. It has buttermilk, sugar, eggs, vanilla, and nutmeg. I use a store bought crust, too. I never heard of buttermilk pie till I met my husbands grandmother. She was born and raised in Mississippi. Since I hate straight buttermilk, I had to be talked into trying it. But it was delicious! After that I was hooked! My husband has always been a big sweet potato pie guy. His grandma made buttermilk pie every year, along with sweet potato, pecan, chocolate, pumpkin, her famous fried apple pies, and several other desserts. He never even tried the buttermilk pie all those years. But after he tried it, it became his favorite! Now its a holiday staple in our house.
The opening on this vlog!! 🤣🤣
When your smoke alarm went off it made me laugh. Mine is close to my stove and it goes off every night, which is no reflection on my cooking skills. LOL! It's a running joke in our home that when it goes off dinner is ready. LOL! Love you guys! You are such a great couple! :-)
Ha! The smoke alarm is the modern day dinner bell. Too funny!
That intro was amazing! 🤣😂🤣
Haha! Thank you!
I live in Ohio and we always have sugar cream pie at every holiday. Our family recipe is instead of cooking the egg and milk mixture on the burner we pour it in the pie shell and bake it. I also use heavy whipping cream instead of half and half. I hate custard pie but a sugar cream pie is not so eggy and sweet. My favorite pie is apricot pie. The pie you made looked delish. I didn’t know sugar cream pie was an Indiana thing. Merry Christmas! 🎄
Yum, apricot pie sounds SO delicious!
I was born in Kentucky and my grandmother always made sugar cream pies. They were easy and just whatever you had in the pantry at the time.
So fun watching you attempt to make the pie... no failures just unexpected outcomes 🤗
Oooh, unexpected outcomes, we like that!
This was nostalgic for me. My mom used to cut off the extra pie crust scraps and my brother and I baked the pieces with butter, white sugar and cinnamon.
Awww, yum!
You two are too funny and fun!
Thank you!! :)
OH MY! You gave us a good laugh. Elizabeth bakes lots of pies (Making a cinnamon pie tommorow. Awesome!) and we blessed your heart several times, lol.
HA! We are definitely NOT bakers! :)
really loooove this video! Have never heared of this pie before, but it sounds awesome... now I need to try it out myself.
And failing is the evolution of getting better in baking :) That's what I've experienced, hehehe.
Wish you all the best and a very merry Christmas!!!
Wick's Pie Factory is in Winchester Indiana they also have a Bakery & restaurant that that sells 35 types of pies can also buy Frozen sugar cream pies and baked pie shells here in Ohio we can buy the frozen pies at the grocery store
Yes, that’s it! Wicks! Thank you :)
Try looking on Taste of Home. They are great for finding recipes and regional ones as well.
Good idea! Thanks for that tip!
Sugar Cream Pies are impossible to find outside of Indiana! My dad lives in Florida and everytime he comes to visit me he HAS to buy a couple Wicks Sugar Cream pies (the best kind) to take back with him!
Yes, we've definitely never seen them outside of there either.
Looks yummy!
It was! We really liked it!
Sugar cream pie is the official pie of Indiana. The pie company is called Wick's. Fyi I use heavy whipping cream. Also I don't prebake my crust. I bake it all at once. Next time you might want to put it on a cookie sheet so you can handle it better.
Good tips, thanks!
Never heard of a sugar cream pie but now I need to try it. If I can’t find one I will definitely make one. Great job both of you 🎅🏻🎄🤶🏻
Thanks so much! We hope that you have better luck than we did :)
The pie crust that failed, is just what I make with leftover pie dough. I take the leftover pie crust and cut with cookie cutters. Add cinnamon and sugar to the butter and put it over the entire crust and bake. My mom always called this poor man pie. Merry Christmas you guys🎄🦋💜
It was definitely a delicious mistake :)
Wicks brand! Best sugar cream pie! We have at all our family events
Yes, Wicks! That's the brand they always buy when we're back in Indiana!
I was doing some checking and you can order Wicks pies on their website and they will ship to you next day air frozen pies. Just in case you can’t do christmas without one!😘. They are made in Winchester Indiana
I have never heard of sugar cream pie. That looked more like a custard pie. I love custard pies but we sprinkle nutmeg on top not cinnamon. It sounds very tasty. At least it was still a good pie for eating. You invented a new pie, call it a Sherry cream pie.
I like that name! We should trademark it!
I am sorry that you struggled so much but it was entertaining ! When I need melted butter and I am pre-heating the oven at the same time I will put the butter in my glass measuring cup and just put it in the oven. Since it has a handle it's easy to remove from the oven. Usually most recipes call for the butter to warm up naturally on the counter but I don't have time for that.
A great way to clean your microwave is to put White Vinegar in a small microwave safe bowl and add an equal amount of water. Put the bowl of the vinegar/water mixture in the microwave and "cook" on high for 2 minutes. Carefully remove the bowl and then just wipe clean the microwave.
We almost just melted the butter in a small pan on the stovetop, but we decided to save time by using the microwave. Oops! That was a mistake. Ha!
I was introduced to Sugar cream pie in Ohio. Your recipe seemed similar to the one I use but the technique seemed off from the recipe I use, but that's part of the fun of baking.
PS I love pie crust scraps with cinnamon & sugar. That was a treat my Mom would make for us whenever she made a pie.
Pie crust scraps are a tasty little benefit to making pies :)
@@LeggLife this also explains our love of churros
Yes, I'm a hoosier too. Yes, we have the pie at Thanksgiving and or Christmas. I'll try your recipe, or adapt it. And I definitely thought of tapioca pudding when I saw it.
I think we either needed to cook the filling longer and let it thicken up more or perhaps add a little bit more cornstarch
I'm a lifetime 58 YEAR OLD Hoosier. I make this pie at Christmas. Only 2 cups of milk..You need a heaping quarter cup of corn starch & must boil one minute. You just added to much milk. Dust with that sugar mixture you put on the other crust. Great first try. GOD'S BLESSINGS
Ooooh, thanks for the tips! We will have to try it that way next time :)
Hi I'm from& in Indiana 😁👃💖 yea me to but my hubby likes sugar cream pie....Have you ever make fruit cocktail cake. Super easy
Were originally from Indiana. Sugar Cream pie is a favorite 😋
Glad to know that there are other sugar cream pie lovers out there! :)
You two are hilarious and I LOVED this video, likely because I have my own Food Blog and do Live Video's that always have the antics of problems. The pie looks great! I'll have to give it a try. You might try a larger sauce pan next time, heat the butter and cream first and then add the sugar with the cornstarch, and cook for longer so that it can thicken up better. Great Video and congrats on doing Vlogmas!
Ooooh, thanks for those tips! We will try that the next time we attempt this pie :)
I’m sorry that it didn’t work out to the best it could have. Sugar cream pie is my all-time favorite and nothing says the holidays like it to me but I’m from Indiana, I make a one with a gluten-free crust but I have never made it like this... I have never seen it anywhere else besides indiana! I hope that you enjoyed and that you’re having a wonderful December
It was a delicious outcome, but it also made us want to try and perfect a sugar cream pie, so our search for the perfect recipe continues!
You made me sooo hungry! You may have needed to cook the filling longer
The crust needed to be blind baked. Cover with parchment paper and put beans for weight so it doesn’t puff up. I’ve never had a sugar cram pie but it looks delicious.
Yeah, we’re not really bakers, so we will just eat the filling like pudding. 😂😂😂
My favorite (very unhealthy) snack is cinnamon sugar pie crust.
Use the pie crust you had for this recipe. Roll it out on a cookie sheet.
Melt some butter and brush it onto the raw dough. Enough to cover, but not run off the edge. Cover butter with cinnamon sugar generously. Use table knife to cut into bite sized pieces. I usually make strips. Then bake as directed on pie crust directions. Your just cooking the dough. Let cool before eating. If you happen to have leftovers, store in ziploc bag.
Use the oven @350-f for 30 minutes, not the broiler for 3.
That will help with the texture.
Wow, I didn't know you guys were starting your own fail videos. Lol. A little less half & half would've thicken it up a bit and I'm definitely going to start using and combining my own words like Sherri did with vanillay and puddinger. (Marshmallowyish - doesn't contain any marshmallows but has the consistency and taste of marshmallow). This vid was fun.
Ha! We definitely had fun making this one :)
I, too, am a Hoosier and can attest sugar cream pie is a staple!
Yup, it definitely is!
From Louisville, so right under Indiana, and have never heard of this pie! Interesting...Maybe it's more of a Northern Indiana thing?
Hmm, interesting. Perhaps it is.
Yummy! I'm loving these vlogmas videos!
Thanks!!
hey, not all baking channels are successful based on a successful outcomes. :D I mean, look at NAILED IT! LOL.
Looks yummy! Even the pie crust fix. Sherri, your hair is so pretty.
Thank you! :)
I was thinking similarly to Melissa below. If it should have been more custardy, you might want to find a recipe that includes eggs - or even heavy whipping cream as opposed to half and half. But at least Adam liked it!!
It seemed like most “authentic” Hoosier sugar cream pies don’t use eggs, so we were trying to avoid them. I probably needed to cook the filling longer so that it thickened up more as well
Real Sugar cream pie never has eggs. The issue was they should have let the mixture "bubble"/boil for 60 seconds to fully activate the thickening properties in the cornstarch. I learned the hard way :-)
Love sugar cream pie from Ohio
Can you find it in stores there, or do you make your own?
In stores. Was not gifted to be a pie maker lol. $6.00 for a pie.
Looked and sounded yummy to me. I'll have to try it.
I would recommend cooking the filling a little bit longer :)
We’ll just skip the crust and call it Sugar Cream Pudding 😋
YES! Now we’re talking :)
I wounder if there should have had eggs added like a custard. It looks great though
The issue was they should have let the mixture "bubble"/boil for 60 seconds to fully activate the thickening properties in the cornstarch. I learned the hard way :-)
Most of the articles we found online said that authentic sugar cream pies don't use eggs, so we were trying to avoid them.
My great grandmother lives in Indiana and whenever we go up to see her she makes sugar cream pie. I’m not a big fan. It looked good though.
Yeah, it’s never been my (Adam) favorite either, but it was fun to try and make :)
The brownie was a failed chocolate cake. Failures can be the best!
This was certainly a delicious failure :)
half and half? Why not heavy whipping cream?
I have no idea. The recipe called for half and half. 🤷🏻♂️
Looks interesting, may have to try it, looks like it needs another tblspn of cornstarch.
Yes, it probably did!
I think it needs to be totally cooled and needs more cornstarch🤷♀️
Yes, I think you're right! :)
10:03 "Oohh, my gosh" 🤣😂🤣😂 Whoa, that was close.
Ha!! SO close!
This is hilarious! I love watching your cooking videos! The recipe calls for heavy cream, so Maybe making it with the heavy cream will help it hold up better than half and half - and also taste better because it will be super rich. I am actually going to convert this to a keto style recipe - crust and all. I'll let you know how it turns out. Thank you! Love the Hawks mug also!
The recipe we posted calls for heavy cream, but the one we used called for half & half, we couldn't find the link the the one we used, so we just found one that was close. Oops!
I never heard of it. I live in Massachusetts
We definitely think it's mostly a regional pie in the midwest.
You may take my Hoosier card! I literally never heard of a sugar cream pie! I must find one now 🥰
Yeah you didn't tempt me to try that sorry! lol!!
Confession from and Indiana kid (I may have grown up in Kentucky but I’m an Indiana kid through blood).....I never was a huge fan of this either Adam 😬 😳. Sorry Sherri and fam 😂😂
say what!!! been a Hoosier my whole life and never heard of this pie!
Whaaaat?! How's that possible?! Ha!
My sister-in-law is from Indiana. I never had one until I started dating my husband.
I (Adam) had never even heard of it until I visited Indiana with Sherri for the first time.
