Turtle Pumpkin Pie


This is such a good recipe. It requires no baking and so it's fast and easy. I love it! Even if you aren't a huge pumpkin fan (which I'm not) you will love this desert. 

1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons caramel topping, divided
1 HONEY MAID graham pie crust
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons pecan pieces, divided
1 cup cold milk
2 pkg. (4-serving size each) JELL-O vanilla flavor instant pudding and pie filling
1 cup canned pumpkin
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tub (8 oz) COOL WHIP whipped topping, thawed

-Pour 1/4 cup caramel topping into crust; sprinkle with 1/2 pecans
-Beat milk, dry pudding mixes, pumpkin and spices with whisk until blended.
-Stir in 1 1/2 cups whipped topping.
-Spread into Crust.
-Top with remaining whipped topping.
-Refrigerate for 1 hour.
-Top with pecans and drizzle remaining caramel with fork. Store leftovers in refrigerator.

FYI: You can add more pecans and caramel if you like (I always do).
