directions

Step 1: Crust

Preheat oven to 350. Prepare pie crust for 2 (9-inch) pie plates. Mix crust ingredients together and press against the bottom and sides of the 2 pie plates.

Step 2: Crust

Place in oven for 10 mins. Cool on wire rack and set aside.

Step 1: Filling

In a mixing bowl, whip the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add the pumpkin. Mix well.

Step 2: Filling

Add the spices, powdered sugar, pudding, and maple syrup. Mix well.

Step 3: Filling

Fold in 1-1/2 cups whipped cream or cool whip. Fold in the chopped walnuts and toffee pieces.

Pie Assembly:

Spread filling over the cooled crust. Mix pie topping ingredients together and sprinkle on filling. Prepare one of the two toppings - Meringue or whipped topping.

Step 1: Optional Meringue Topping

Preheat oven to 425. Use a clean bowl and beater free of any grease. Separate eggs, being careful not to get any yolk in the bowl. **Meringue will not set up properly if there is any fat (yolk).

Step 2: Optional Meringue Topping

**Make sure the egg whites have been at room temp for at least an hour. Beat egg whites on med - high. When soft peaks have formed,add 1 cup of sugar very gradually, until not grainy. Add the cream of tartar.

Step 3: Optional Meringue Topping

Spread on the pie, being careful not to seal all the edges. Put in preheated oven for 8 - 10 mins, until lightly golden. Refrigerate at least 2 hrs before serving.
