Maw Maws Pumpkin Pie Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• 2. With a hand mixer cream together cream cheese, brown sugar, spices, vanilla extract and melted butter.
• 3. Add 1 cup evaporated milk and 2 cups of canned pumpkin, mix thoroughly.
• 4. In a separate bowl whisk one whole egg and two egg yolks, then add to pumpkin mixture and beat thoroughly.
• 5. Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula and make sure that all ingredients are incorporated.
• 6. Divide mixture evenly between two deep dish pie crusts. I use a ladle and fill the shells one ladle at a time to make sure that they are perfectly even.
• 7. Place pies in the oven and bake for 50 minutes, then allow pies to cool completely on the counter and then store in the refrigerator.

Steps:

• Mix eggs, Karo syrup, butter, salt, vanilla, sugar and pecans.
• Pour into 9-inch pie pan or plate lined with the uncooked crust.
• Bake at 450 degrees F for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees F and bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean (about 35-45 minutes).

Steps:

• Bake your pie shells according to package directions and let them cool completely.
• While your pie shells are baking, melt the butter in a skillet over medium and add the pecans and coconut. Toast your coconut and pecans in the butter until they become golden brown (roughly 10 minutes). Keep stirring constantly -- these can scorch easily. Set them aside to let them cool.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk together until creamy. Fold in your whipped topping by hand -- be careful not to "break it down" too much, but still get it incorporated nicely (it's such a fine line, isn't it?).
• Have your baked and cooled pie shells ready to fill -- it's time to start layering!
• Start by using 1/2 of your cream cheese mixture and divide that evenly between the two pie shells (so, technically, each pie will get 1/4 of the mixture).
• Drizzle 1/4 of your caramel sauce over the cream cheese mixture on each pie, use 1/4 per pie and 1/2 the jar total for this layer.
• Sprinkle 1/4 of the pecan/coconut mixture over the caramel on each pie. Again, use 1/2 of the mixture total.
• Repeat the layers, using the remaining ingredients. Place pies in the freezer overnight.
• You'll pull them out about about 20-30 minutes before serving to let them thaw a bit. You can store them in your freezer for about a month. I double wrap mine in Press-N-Seal and then add an additional layer of foil on top of that, to prevent any freezer burn.

Steps:

• Place chopped cooked chicken in a lightly greased 12x8 inch baking dish.
• Whisk together cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and cornstarch.
• Pour mixture evenly over chicken.
• Whisk together self-rising flour, buttermilk, and melted butter.
• Spoon batter evenly over chicken mixture.
• Bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed sweet potatoes, eggs, evaporated milk, corn syrup, brown sugar, butter, salt and spices.
• Beat with a wooden spoon until smooth and frothy.
• Stir in the pecans.
• Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie shell and bake for 15 minutes at 400°F.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue baking until cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.
• Let pie cool before serving.
• Delicious with or without whipped cream.
