PUMPKIN RUM PIE
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Partially bake the pie shell, according to the package directions.
- In the large bowl of an electric mixer, whisk the pumpkin puree, eggs, brown sugar, melted butter, 1 1/2 cups of the heavy cream, sour cream, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, salt, dark rum, and vanilla. Pour into the shell. Bake for 10 minutes, and then reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F. Continue baking for 35 to 45 minutes. Cool to room temperature and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- With the whisk attachment of an electric mixer, whip the remaining cup of heavy cream on high speed until the cream starts to froth. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar and whip on high until the cream stands in peaks. Either spoon or pipe the whipped cream around the edges of the pie and garnish with Praline Pecans.
- In a small skillet melt the butter and sugar over medium heat. Add the pecans, stirring until bubbly; about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour onto aluminum foil. When the pecans are cool, crumble into small pieces and sprinkle the topping on top of the whipped cream.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place 1 piece of pre-made pie dough down into a (9-inch) pie pan and press down along the bottom and all sides. Pinch and crimp the edges together to make a pretty pattern. Put the pie shell back into the freezer for 1 hour to firm up. Fit a piece of aluminum foil to cover the inside of the shell completely. Fill the shell up to the edges with pie weights or dried beans (about 2 pounds) and place it in the oven. Bake for 10 minutes, remove the foil and pie weights and bake for another 10 minutes or until the crust is dried out and beginning to color.
- (I dispensed with lining the pie tin with foil and weights. I pricked the bottom and sides lightly and baked for 10 minutes until the crust was begining to turn golden brown. I made a shield with foil for the edges of the crust and then filled and baked pie).
- For the filling, in a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer. Add the pumpkin and beat until combined. Add the sugar and salt, and beat until combined. Add the eggs mixed with the yolks, half-and-half, and melted butter, and beat until combined. Finally, add the vanilla, cinnamon, and ginger, if using, and beat until incorporated.
- Pour the filling into the warm prepared pie crust and bake for 50 minutes, or until the center is set. Place the pie on a wire rack and cool to room temperature. Cut into slices and top each piece with a generous amount of whipped cream.

Tips:
- For the perfect pie crust, use a food processor to blend the ingredients until they resemble coarse crumbs. Then, add just enough ice water to hold the dough together. Overworking the dough will result in a tough crust.
- When making the praline filling, be sure to toast the pecans in a single layer in a preheated oven. This will help to bring out their flavor and prevent them from burning.
- Use a candy thermometer to ensure that the praline filling reaches the correct temperature (230°F). This will help to prevent the filling from crystallizing.
- Allow the pie to cool completely before serving. This will help the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
- For a beautiful presentation, garnish the pie with whipped cream or a dollop of vanilla ice cream.
Conclusion:
Paula Deen's Praline Pumpkin Pie is a delightful dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy pumpkin filling, crunchy praline topping, and flaky pie crust, this pie is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a special treat, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
