What you'll need:

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 9-inch pie plate
  • Disposable piping bag, or 2 resealable plastic bags

  1. Reserve 8 MILKY WAY® Brand Milk Chocolate Covered Caramels on the side. Roughly chop the rest of the candy.
  2. Preheat oven to 425?.
  3. Line the pie shell with the prepared pie crust. Sprinkle the chopped candy around the bottom.
  4. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pumpkin, sugar, salt, eggs and evaporated milk until smooth. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
  5. Bake for 15 minutes at 425?, then reduce temperature to 350?, and continue baking for 40-45 minutes.
  6. Remove pie from oven, transfer to a wire rack, and let cool completely.
  7. To decorate the pie top, melt the reserved MILKY WAY® Brand Milk Chocolate Covered Caramels and the reserved tablespoon of evaporated milk for about 45 seconds in the microwave, stirring frequently. Transfer the mixture into a resealable plastic bag and snip the corner. Set aside.
  8. Set the star tip into a piping bag or re-sealable plastic bag (with a snipped corner). Fill the bag with whipped cream, and pipe 16 rosettes around the outside edge of the pumpkin custard. Drizzle the reserved MILKY WAY® caramel mixture over the rosettes.
TIP: For easy and no-mess chopping, freeze the MILKY WAY® Brand Milk Chocolate Covered Caramels first!
