Caramel Cream Pie

Add this caramel cream pie to your must-try list! You'll love this creamy caramel pie topped with whipped cream and drizzled with additional caramel!

Doesn't that slice of caramel cream pie look YUMMY?  I wanted a new pie to add to my Thanksgiving pie list.  My husband is more partial to cream pies than fruit pies and loves caramel, so I set out to create a caramel cream pie.  This pie is really easy to make and oh so delicious!

I cheated a little and just bought a pre-made Nilla Wafer crust.  Not only is it easier, but I'm usually out of pie plates by the time I get to making the cream pies for Thanksgiving.  So step one, buy a Nilla Wafer crust.

The caramel sauce for this pie is made from scratch, but it is incredibly easy.  Heat the butter, brown sugar, salt, and water over medium heat until boiling. 

Boil for 5 minutes. 

Remove from the heat and whisk in the vanilla and evaporated milk. 

Measure out ¼ cup of the hot caramel, and add an additional tablespoon of evaporated milk to it.

Put this little bit of caramel in the fridge to save to drizzle over the finished caramel cream pie, 

Pour the rest of the hot caramel into a medium mixing bowl and place over a larger bowl of ice as pictured above.   

You can just let the caramel cool on its own, but cooling it over ice only takes 3 or 4 minutes.

Once the caramel is cool, remove the bowl from over the ice, dry the bottom of the bowl, and beat the softened cream cheese into the caramel sauce.  Beat it until it is completely smooth.

In another bowl, beat the whipping cream until it starts to thicken up.  Add the sifted powdered sugar and continue to beat until stiff peaks form. 

Fold in ⅓ of the whipped cream in the cream cheese caramel mixture.  Be sure to fold, not stir. 

Stirring will deflate the whipped cream.

Fold in the remaining whipped cream in two additions.

Smooth the caramel cream pie filling into the Nilla Wafer crust.  Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. 

Then whip another cup of whipping cream as directed in the recipe and until stiff peaks form. 

Pipe over the top of the chilled caramel cream pie. 

Drizzle the pie with the reserved ¼ cup of caramel sauce.
