Aunt Susie's Pumpkin Pie

/

1 large can pumpkin

4 eggs

3 TBS flour

5 cups whole milk

2 ½ cups sugar

1 tsp. salt

2 tsp. cinnamon

Directions:  Mix all with mixer.  Pour into 2 deep dish pie crusts.  Bake at 425 

degrees for 10 minutes, then 375 degrees for 50-60 minutes.

Comment:  If you want to make ahead, I have made the filling the day before and 

then poured into the crust to bake the following day and it worked great.  This is 

Kory's  favorite Pumpkin pie.

Turtle Bars

/

2 cups flour

½ cup powdered sugar

1 cup butter

1 egg, beaten

1  14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk

1 tsp. vanilla

1 cup chocolate chips

1 cup pecans, coarsely chopped

1 cup toffee-n-chocolate pieces (Heath or Skor) 

Directions:  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Combine the flour, powdered sugar and 

butter in a food processor.  Pulse until a crumbly dough is formed.  Press the dough 

firmly into a greased 9” x 13” pan.  Bake until just golden, about 12 minutes.

Whisk together the sweetened, condensed milk, egg and vanilla.  Pour the filling 

over the baked crust.

Sprinkle the pecans, chocolate chips and toffee pieces evenly over the filling.  Bake 

until the filling is set, the edges are golden brown, and the toffee is melted, about 23-

25 minutes.  Cool completely in the refrigerator, about 2 hours.  Cut into bars.

Comment:  When it comes to the sprinkle topping, the limit is your imagination.  

Instead of pecans, chips and toffee, consider marshmallows, chocolate chips and 

peanuts.  Consider M&M combinations…Reese’s pieces…Butterscotch chips, etc.
