Walnut Pie I

This walnut-lover 's pie is very similar to a pecan pie, but the addition of milk and flour add a slightly heavier texture and creamier taste. The nuts are arranged in the bottom of a pastry shell and the sweet, thick filling is carefully poured on top. The pie is baked for an hour and then cooled before serving. Serve it with whipped cream.
