Turtle Pumpkin Pie.

Turtle Pumpkin Pie

-Ready made [or home made graham cracker crust]
-Caramel sauce
-Whole pecans
-Large Canned pumpkin filling
-Large Vanilla pudding mix
-Whipped cream

Super Easy! 
-Lay the pecans down flat on the bottom on the pie crust and pour the caramel sauce over the top of it until the tops of the pecans are almost covered. {I put mine in the fridge or freezer until it's cooled. if you don't, it will spill over a lot when you put the pie filling in}
-Mix the whole can of pie filling with the packet of vanilla pudding, keeping 2 tablespoons of the pudding powder aside for the whip cream. Spoon the mixture onto the pie, over the pecans and caramel sauce. Set aside in Fridge and cool again for about 5 minutes.
-Mix whip cream with the 2 tablespoons of pudding mix. Just to give the whip cream a little texture and flavor. Spoon over the chilled pie. We have done this for the garnish: sprinkled on crushed pecans, drizzled caramel, or sprinkled on crushed up health bar pieces. Any way is awesome!

{I always chill for another 20+ minutes before serving. just to help the caramel seep into the pecans.}
