Wild Honey Pie

Don't know that there is much to say about this song, but here it is anyway.  (I'm sure after you hear it you will undoubtedly decide that this is the BEST BEATLES SONG EVER!)  (Do you ever wish there was a sarcasm font so people know when you're joking?) 

I just read online that this song was written by Paul McCartney and performed and recorded solely by him.  They were in experimentation mode, and weren't planning to use the song until George Harrison's girl said she liked it. 

I thought Yoko Ono was the only girlfriend that had any say about what happens with the Beatles. 

Since I love attention, and I'm pathetic and desparate to get it (i.e. this blog) I have a brilliant idea!  I'm gonna make a honey pie!  My wife is going to help me, and it's going to make me famous.  And since I'm all over Blogger, Facebook, and Twitter already, you guys can put this pie and recipe we made up on Pinterest.  Then I will take over the world, and once I do I will make this song the world national anthem.  Here it goes,

BEATLES WILD HONEY PIE

recipe by (mostly) Megan and Brady Cash

In ignorant non cooking husband terms:

Use a pre-made pie crust

Place it in a pie tin

Use a fork and make the edges look neat

Take the pie crust and carefully cut out the silhouette of your favorite Beatle for the day.  In our case today is Ringo. 

Cook the pie crust and Beatle Silhouette independenly for 5 minutes at 450 degrees

In separate bowl, dissolve 4 tablespoons corn starch with 1 2/3 cup heavy cream

Stir in a 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk and 3 beaten egg yolks

Now add 1/4 cup creamed honey 

Add 1/2 teaspoon flavoring or extract based on the Beatle of choice:
For John- Strawberry

For Paul- Lemon

For George- Almond

For Ringo- Lime (our choice today)

Cook everything on medium heat until bubbles.

Now add 1 teaspoon butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.

Insert filling into baked pie crust and place in fridge to chill for 2 hours.  

After chilling, sprinkle sugar evenly over pie filling.

Broil until golden brown (cover the crusts with tin foil to avoid burning)

Place Ringo (or whoever's) face on top. 

Decorate Ringo's face with regular honey- it looks great on the hair

Eat. 

Here is our end result.  Come over and try it if you'd like.  It's totally good.
