Personal Notes:
Use this cream pie filling for peanut butter pie, coconut cream pie (add 1 C coconut to filling), or banana cream pie.

*If you don't have a double boiler you can make one by placing a heat proof bowl on top of a pan. The bottom of the bowl should fit snugly onto the top of the pan.
