-3/4 cup sugar
-1/4 cup cornstarch

Preheat oven to 450 F.  Bake pie crust for 9-10 minutes, or until light golden brown.  Set aside to cool completely.
Meanwhile, prepare the filling, by mixing sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan.  Add milk and mix until smooth.  Cook over medium heat until mixture boils and thickens.  Stir constantly (otherwise it will burn!).  Boil for 2 minutes and remove from heat.
