preparation
Heat oven to 450°. Line a 9-inch round cake pan with foil, letting ends extend about 2-inches above pan. Unfold pie crust in pan. Press into pan and fold edges down slightly to make a 1-inch high lip. Press edges gently with a fork, then prick crust with fork. Press a sheet of foil slightly and snugly onto crust. Bake 12 minutes; remove foil off top and bake 6 minutes more until lightly browned. Reduce heat to 350°. Whisk ice cream topping, eggs, butter and vanilla in a medium bowl until well blended. Pour into crust and scatter nuts evenly on top. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until puffed and lightly browned. Cool, then refrigerate 4 hours to firm. Lift foil by ends to cutting board and cut into 24 wedges. |
