My great grandmother made the most delicious butterscotch pie, and it’s an odd coincidence that it’s also Jeremy’s favorite flavor.

I love the taste of her classic recipes, but I also like to spice them up a bit and make them my own.

Jeremy also has a fondness for Kentucky bourbon, and he regards himself as a bourbon connoisseur. I decided to add a splash of a good Kentucky bourbon to my great grandmothers butterscotch pie recipe for this tasty Bourbon Butterscotch Pie.

Most of the alcohol will cook from the pie during simmering, but it adds a distinct flavor and richness. I also didn’t have any issues with this recipe setting up firm enough to slice.

You could add a dollop of fresh whipped cream or even bake a meringue on top. I prefer mine plain.
