Mix cornstarch, sugar, and salt in a 3-quart saucepan. Add milk and half and half; cook over medium heat until smooth and thick, stirring constantly.
Pour a small amount of hot mixture into egg yolks; blend thoroughly, then pour back into saucepan. Cook another 2 or 3 minutes.
Remove from heat; add butter and vanilla. If you are making coconut, chocolate, or German chocolate pie, add the additional ingredients NOW.
Pour into crust and chill, top with whipped cream.
