WALNUT-CRUNCH PUMPKIN PIE
Steps:
- Pie Crust: In a food processor, add flour and salt. Pulse to mix. Add cold butter and Crisco, which has been cut into small pieces. Pulse 6 to 8 times until mixture resembles coarse meal with some small pea-size butter lumps. Drizzle 4 tablespoons ice water evenly over and pulse 3-4 times more until dough holds together. Add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time until dough holds together. Form into 2 balls, then flatten each into a disk. Wrap disks separately in plastic wrap and at least 1 hour. Divide dough into 2 pieces. On a lightly floured surface with a lightly floured rolling pin roll out one piece of dough into a 10-inch round (about 1/8 inch thick). Fit a 9-inch pie plate with one piece of dough. Reserve 2nd piece of dough for another time. Refrigerate while preparing filling Filling:Place baking sheet in oven and preheat to 450°F. Whisk first 8 ingredients together in large bowl to blend. Whisk in pumpkin, molasses and eggs, then cream. Pour mixture into frozen crust. Place pie on preheated baking sheet in oven. Bake 10 minutes. Reduce heat to 325°F and bake until sides puff and center is just set, about 40 minutes. Cool completely. Walnut-Crunch Topping:In a small saucepan, over low heat, melt butter. Stir in walnuts and sugar and mix until well mixed. Spoon evenly over pie. Broil pie 3 minutes, 5 to 7 inches from broiler, or until topping is golden and sugar dissolves. Cool pie again on wire rack. Whipped Cream topping: In a small bowl, beat heavy whipping cream and powered sugar with electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Pipe around edge of cooled pie.
