The hot temperatures outside make it hard to believe it is fall. Nevertheless, I can’t disappoint my readers. Yummy recipes are coming! Here’s one that I found today from Kraft. Instead of making the traditional pumpkin pie, perhaps you could try this one. Best of all, it only takes 15 minutes to make this pie.
Prep: 15 minutes plus refrigeration
1/4 cup plus 2 tbsp caramel topping, divided
1 Honey Maid Graham Pie Crust (6 oz)
1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp Planters Pecan pieces, divided
1 cup cold milk
2 pkg (4-serving size each) Jell-o Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding & Pie Filling
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tub (8 oz) Coll Whip Whipped Topping, thawed, divided
Pour 1/4 cup caramel topping into crust; sprinkle with 1/2 cup pecans.
Beat milk, dry pudding mixes, pumpkin and spices with whisk until blended. Stir in 1 1/2 cups whipped topping. Spread into crust. Top with remaining whipped topping.
Refrigerate 1 hour. Top with pecans and drizzle remaining caramel with fork. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
Makes 10 servings, one slice each.

I love the turtle idea, but I don’t love the ready-made ingredients (they’re more expensive at the grocery store where I shop). I may have to experiment with modifying this recipe.
My husband would probably like this recipe. I’m not a big fan of anything pumpkin pie.
Oh, but I forgot to mention that I do LOVE pumpkin seeds!
