We are sure that you'll love this pie! We start out by adding creamy cheesecake filling onto the bottom pie crust. We top that with our yummy homemade pumpkin pie filling and then we sprinkle the top with pralined pecans.

Laura's pie won the Crisco 100th Anniversary Innovation Award at the 2011 National Pie Championships. It starts out with dense sticky toffee pudding mixed with pralined pecans on top of the bottom crust. On top of that goes a layer of our homemade apple pie filling that is mixed with our homemade caramel. On top of that we put our yummy crumb topping, and then when the pie comes out of the oven we drizzle the top with more homemade caramel and more pralined pecans. A truely amazing pie!!

  "It seems to me that our three basic needs for food, security and love, are so mixed and mingled and entwined that we cannot straightly think of one without the others. So it happens when I write of hunger, I am really writing about love and the hunger for it, and the warmth and the love of it, and the hunger for it...and then the warmth and richness and fine reality of hunger satisfied...and it is all one."
