Time 3h30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 1/4 cups Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
2 eggs
1 cup cooled mashed cooked squash
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 can (12 ounces) evaporated milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425°F. In large bowl, mix butter and 1/3 cup brown sugar. Stir in all remaining Nut Cookie Crust ingredients just until crumbly. Press crust mixture on bottom and side of ungreased deep-dish pie plate, 9x1 1/2 inches, or regular pie plate, 9x1 1/4 inches, building up 1/2-inch edge (high edge is necessary to prevent filling from running over).
  • In large bowl, beat eggs slightly. Stir in all remaining Squash Filling ingredients except milk until smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Pour into crust. Cover edge with 2- to 3-inch strip of foil to prevent excessive browning.
  • Bake pie 15 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350°F. Bake 45 to 55 minutes longer or until knife inserted near center comes out clean. Cool completely on wire rack, about 2 hours. Store covered in refrigerator.
