CARAMEL NUT CRUNCH PIE

Caramel Nut Crunch Pie image

This cool and creamy pie has a lot going for it. It's easy to make, it can be assembled well in advance to save time, and it's impressive enough to serve guests. To make this dessert even more decadent and delicious, you can chop extra peanuts and candy bars and crumble a few more cookies to sprinkle over the top. -Andrea Bolden, Unionville, Tennessee
