Norris City Old Timers classic dessert has been a beloved favorite of many for generations. With its rich and indulgent flavors, it's no wonder that this cookie pie has stood the test of time.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature for baking.
Prepare a 9x13 inch buttered baking dish and set aside. This prevents the dessert from sticking and ensures an easy release.
In a large saucepan, melt two bars of butter over medium heat. Stir occasionally and watch closely.
Add 4 cups of sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt to the melted butter, stirring until fully combined.
Gradually add in 12 large eggs, one at a time, stirring well after each addition. This ensures a smooth mixture.
Enhance the flavor with a tablespoon of vanilla extract poured into the mixture. Stir well.
Add a cup of milk and 1 tablespoon of ground nutmeg to the mixture, stirring until fully incorporated. The milk adds creaminess while the nutmeg brings a delicious spice.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and use a spatula to smooth out the top.
Bake for 55 to 60 minutes until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
Allow the Norris City Old Timers to cool before slicing into squares and serving.
