DESSERTS TO DIE FOR

Praline Crème Pie

By Sydney Hill

Fall and pies just seem to go together like two peas in a pod. This one meets that statement especially. It's double layered: one being tasty praline and the other tasty butterscotch. You'll smell autumn in the air as you bake this treat.

This is also one you can go crazy with on the garnishes. Try toasted coconut, pecans, butterscotch chips, or just plain whipped cream (You can't go wrong with that).

As a side note, when the butterscotch layer is bubbling on medium heat, you can let it boil about 1 minute.
