Ingredients

• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar
• 1/8 cup sifted all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup milk

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a saucepan, combine white sugar, brown sugar, flour and salt. Pour in milk and add margarine. Heat, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves and margarine is melted. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

In a large bowl, whisk egg yolk, egg and vanilla until smooth. Whisk in cooled sugar mixture. Pour into pie crust.
