Almond Fudge Custard Pie Recipes

ALMOND CUSTARD PIE

Steps:

• 1. Cream softened butter and sugar on medium speed of mixer for 2 minutes. Add salt, 1/8 tsp. nutmeg, almond extract, and eggs. Beat on high 2 minutes; add milk; blend well.
• 2. Pour into unbaked pie shell. Sprinkle remaining nutmeg over pie. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 45 minutes, or until knife inserted in middle comes out clean. Cover pie crust with pie rim or foil to avoid over-browning if necessary. Remove from oven and cool.
• 3. Drizzle warmed caramel sauce over pie; sprinkle with almonds (you can use toasted sliced almonds if you prefer). Store in refrigerator until well chilled. Serve.

MOCHA-ALMOND FUDGE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Finely grind chocolate cookies in food processor. Add butter and process until crumbs are moist and stick together. Using plastic wrap as aid, firmly press crumbs onto bottom and up sides of 9-inch-diameter deep-dish glass pie plate. Bake crust 10 minutes. Freeze until cold, about 15 minutes.
• Spread butterscotch sauce over bottom of crust; freeze until firm, about 15 minutes. Spoon ice cream into crust, pressing to compact and mounding slightly in center. Freeze 15 minutes. Spread fudge topping over ice cream; freeze 5 minutes. Press chopped toffee onto topping. Cover and freeze until very firm, at least 6 hours. (Can be prepared 3 days ahead. Keep frozen.)
• Let pie stand at room temperature 15 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve.
