Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Absolutely! The Milk Butter Pie can be made a day in advance. Simply store it in the refrigerator and serve it chilled or at room temperature.
4. Can I add other flavors to the custard filling?
While the classic Milk Butter Pie is simply delightful, you can experiment with other flavors, such as adding a hint of cinnamon or nutmeg to the custard for a unique twist.
