This Caramel Fudge Pie with Toasted Pecan Crust is one of the best pies I’ve ever made or eaten and it’s Gluten Free Naturally!
If you’re having Easter dinner at your house or taking food to a friend’s, this might be a recipe to consider- you guys know that I have Celiac Disease and am always looking for yummy recipes that are gluten free…and this one is a winner!
Now for that recipe…
Ingredients:
3 cups chopped PLANTERS Pecans, divided
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
1 pkg. (11 oz.) KRAFT Caramels
2/3 cup whipping cream, divided
1 package Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla make it
HEAT oven to 350°F.
Instructions:
USE pulsing action to blend 2 cups nuts in blender until finely ground. Mix with granulated sugar and butter; press onto bottom and up side of 9-inch pie plate. Bake 12 to 15 min. or until lightly browned. (If crust puffs up during baking, gently press down with back of spoon.) Cool completely.
MICROWAVE caramels and 1/3 cup whipping cream in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2-1/2 to 3 min. or until caramels are completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after each minute. Pour into crust. Chop remaining nuts; sprinkle over caramel layer.
COOK chocolate, remaining cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in saucepan on low heat just until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring constantly. Pour over pie; spread to cover top of pie. Refrigerate 2 hours.

April 14, 2014 at 10:18 amOh my! This pie looks delicious, Robin! I am going to save this recipe, for sure. I will say some some prayers for you and I will leave a Bible verse for you that may help you during this busy, hectic time.
Isaiah 55:12 – You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.
Hugs! Eileen
