Butterscotch Pumpkin Pie
This recipe was found on the internet, but for the life of me i can't remember where! I was intrigued with it not only because it included butterscotch chips but also because of its lattice top!! note: lattice pie cutters are available at baking & home supply stores.
Steps
Preheat oven to 425 degrees f , then unroll one of the pastry crusts & fit it into a 9-inch pie plate.
Refrigerate until ready to fill.
In a small saucepan , combine butterscotch chips & heavy cream , & turn heat up to medium , heating about 5 minutes , whisking occasionally , until smooth , then set aside to cool slightly.
Meanwhile , in a large bowl , whisk together pumpkin puree , egg & egg yolk , sugar , pumpkin pie spice , salt , ginger & nutmeg.
Slowly whisk in butterscotch mixture until incorporated , then spoon into crust-lined pie plate & spread smooth.
Unroll 2nd crust / dough , and if using a lattice pie cutter , spread the crust / dough on top of the cutter.
Then use a rolling pin to roll across the dough to cut & create the lattice pattern.
Carefully remove piecrust from lattice cutter , trying not to stretch it , & place it on top of the pie.
Fold over edge & crimp decoratively.
If you have no lattice pie cutter , use small cookie cutters to create a design & p.
