Instructions
Step 1: First, the crust.
Ingredients:
- crust
Step 2: Place the graham crackers in a Ziploc bag, and with a rolling pin, crush them. My guy always comes around when it's time to do this, and does it for me. I think he likes it.
Ingredients:
- graham crackers
Equipment:
- rolling pin
Step 3: In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with the sugar.
Ingredients:
- graham cracker crumbs
- sugar
Equipment:
- bowl
Step 4: Add the melted butter, and mix well.
Ingredients:
- butter
Step 5: Press the graham cracker mixture into a pie plate, and refrigerate for about a half hour.
Ingredients:
- graham crackers
Step 6: Now, the filling! Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
Ingredients:
- butter
Equipment:
- sauce pan
Step 7: Stir in the brown sugar (and molasses, if you're using it). Keep the heat low, and stir until the brown sugar is all melted and bubbly.
Ingredients:
- brown sugar
- molasses
Step 8: Add 1/2 cup of the heavy cream, and stir until the brown sugar and butter are dissolved.
Ingredients:
- brown sugar
- heavy cream
- butter
Step 9: Stir in the remaining 1/2 cup of the heavy cream, all of the milk, and the salt.
Ingredients:
- heavy cream
- milk
- salt
Step 10: Remove from heat, and let cool until lukewarm. I find this only takes about 10 minutes.
Step 11: Mix together the cornstarch and water, and pour it into the pudding mixture.
Ingredients:
- corn starch
- water
Step 12: Reheat over medium high heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture starts to thicken. It'll thicken fast with all that corn starch!
Ingredients:
- corn starch
Step 13: Turn heat to low, and continue to stir vigorously while keeping it at a good simmer for about a minute.
Step 14: Remove from heat, and stir in the whiskey and vanilla.
Ingredients:
- vanilla
- whiskey
Step 15: Whiskey wasn't in my original Butterscotch Pudding recipe, but I love the addition for this pie. Gives it a little extra somethin' somethin'.
Ingredients:
- butterscotch pudding
- whiskey
Step 16: Pour the pudding mixture into the chilled pie crust.
Ingredients:
- pie crust
Step 17: Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least two hours.
Ingredients:
- wrap
Equipment:
- plastic wrap
Step 18: Ready for the topping? Whip the 1 1/2 cups chilled heavy whipping cream with the wire whisk attachment on your stand mixer (you can do this by hand, but it would be quite the workout).
Ingredients:
- heavy cream
Equipment:
- stand mixer
- whisk
Step 19: Add the sugar and vanilla to the cream while it's whipping. It's ready when soft peaks form. Yum.
Ingredients:
- vanilla
- cream
- sugar
Step 20: I'm stating the obvious, but remove the pie from the fridge and take off the plastic wrap.
Ingredients:
- wrap
Equipment:
- plastic wrap
Step 21: Pile on the whipping cream. I like to spread it almost to the edges, but not quite - gotta give folks a glimpse of the actual pie yumminess!
Ingredients:
- whipping cream
- spread
Step 22: If you want, garnish with a little shaved chocolate. I just took the carrot peeler to a Hershey bar.
Ingredients:
- chocolate
- carrot
Equipment:
- peeler
Step 23: Or leave it plain. Either way!
Step 24: Enjoy!
